Lullaby For You

Words cannot describe the way I feel in your arms tonight Drifting soaring reaching to new heights Tossing coins in wishing wells as the birds sing on & on & on

But it's just a lullaby for you

With lips as plush as pillows You're soft as a prayer (It's not always what it seems) Skin as sweet as candy I can only have you in my dreams

Mere deeds cannot express the love that swells in my heart I pine for you whenever we're apart The sun just hides behind the clouds as the rain pours on & on

But it's just a lullaby for you

Precious vows were spoken by the whistle of a train Promises lie broken scattered in the rain

Writing notes I'll never send as the fire slowly burns I'll sleep in the cold till you return I listen to the melancholy phonograph spin round & round & round

But it's just a lullaby for you Yes it's just a lullaby for you Oh it's just a lullaby for you
