Lover's Lullaby |
| Lay down now in slumber |
| Mama’s boy is torn assunder |
| All the fields have gone grey |
| All the leaves are gone brown |
| Let me tell you a story |
| Lay down, I know your weary |
| While the star’s are in the sky |
| While the moons on the rise |
| Lay down and don’t you wake 'til mornin' |
| Close your eyes and helpless through the night |
| Lay down and dream of love and glory |
| This is a lover’s lullabye |
| There once was a magician |
| Fair he was, and handsome |
| Well, he brought to the table |
| All the fool’s gold and wine |
| And he promised us three favors |
| Said he was a saviour |
| But we drank all his glory |
| And we borrowed all his time |
| Lay down and don’t you wake 'til mornin' |
| Close your eyes and helpless through the night |
| Lay down and dream of love and glory |
| This is a lover’s lullabye, my love |
| Sleep tight, my love |
| Softly fade away |
| The moon was made of old green cheese |
| To keep the night away |
| Softly now, close your eyes |
| Lightly will fade |
| The moon was made for wakefull boys |
| To keep the night away |
| Lay down, and don’t wake 'til mornin' |
| Close your eyes all through the night |
| Lay down and dream of love and glory |
| This is a lullabye |
| Lay Down, and don’t wake 'til mornin' |
| Close your eyes all through the night |
| Lay down in all your glory |
| This is a lullabye |
| This is a lullabye |
