| Lay soft on your pillow tonight
|
| For the morning will come too soon
|
| Watching the shadows fade into light
|
| We will bid farewell to the moon
|
| And while you are sleeping my love
|
| I will watch over you
|
| Flickering eyes show your innermost dreams
|
| When love comes to us anew
|
| Though I may be some distance away
|
| In truth we are as one
|
| And you will be with me by night and by day
|
| And forever when all is gone
|
| The night is too short my love
|
| And the road is too long to know
|
| I will carry this memory of you
|
| To the places I must go When the swallows return with the spring
|
| And the meadows are flowered in bloom
|
| I will return to see you again
|
| And the place that I call home
|
| And though I may be some distance away
|
| In truth we are as one
|
| And you will be with me by night and by day
|
| And forever when all is gone
|
| Lay soft on your pillow tonight
|
| For the morning will come too soon
|
| Watching the shadows fade into light
|
| We will bid farewell to the moon
|
| We will bid farewell to the moon |
