lover's lullaby

Lyrics

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
