A Nightingale's Lullaby

The sun's going down in the deep blue sea

So close your eyes, go to sleep

I will wrap all the milk stars around you

So dream and your dreams will come true.

You can ride past the wind as a champion mare

Over the woods, lighter than air

You can fly to the moon as a great white swan

And back you will be before dawn.

A nightingale's lullaby bends in the wind

Messing your hair, drinks the tears from your pillow

So sleep now, sweet dreams, my love

I may be older but I am not wise

I'm still a child's grown up disguise

And I never can tell you what you want to know

You will find out as you go.

Now the sun's disappeared in the deep blue sea

Eyes are closed, sleep so deep

The milk stars are wrapped all around you

So dream, and your dreams will come true.
