| Lay me down gently, lay me down low
|
| I fear I am broken and won’t mend, I know
|
| One thing I ask when the stars light the skies
|
| Who now will sing me lullabies
|
| Oh who now will sing me lullabies
|
| In this big world I’m lonely, for I am but small
|
| Oh angels in heaven, don’t you care for me at all?
|
| You heard my heart breaking for it rang through the skies
|
| So why don’t you sing me lullabies
|
| Oh why don’t you sing me lullabies
|
| I lay here; |
| I’m weeping for the stars they have come
|
| I lay here not sleeping; |
| now the long night has begun
|
| The man in the moon, oh he can’t help but cry
|
| For there’s no one to sing me lullabies
|
| Oh there’s no one to sing me lullabies
|
| So lay me down gently, oh lay me down low
|
| I fear I am broken and won’t mend, I know
|
| One thing I ask when the stars light the skies
|
| Who now will sing me lullabies
|
| Oh who now will sing me lullabies
|
| Who will sing me to sleep
|
| Who will sing me to sleep
|
| Who will sing me to sleep
|
| Who will sing me to sleep |
