Softly They Sing

Lullaby, lullaby
Sing me to sleep this night

Lullaby, lullaby, lullaby
Sing me to sleep...

Lullaby, lullaby
Sing me to sleep this night
How will I get there alone?
Lullaby, stay there as
I shut my eyes
I know they'll lead me away if you don't

Softly they sing
Through silence, they ring
Painting pictures as bright as the day
Whispering words
That can only be heard
While the waking world's melting away

Fairytale, fairytale
Whisk me away
To the glittering lights
Where we dance in the rain

Rabbit hole, rabbit hole
Lead me astray
'til the morning arrives
And I float back again

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep...

Softly they sing
Through silence, they ring
Painting pictures as bright as the day
Whispering words
That can only be heard
While the waking world's melting away

Softly they sing
Through silence, they ring
Painting pictures as bright as the day
Whispering words
That can only be heard
While the waking world's melting away

And the waking world's melting a w a y . .
