another lullaby

art garfunkel

close your eyes my pretty child

though the night is dark and the wind is wild. i will stand beside your bed

tonight there is nothing you need fear or dread. you can sleep now

go to sleep

the rain falls and the windows weep. i'm standing by to sing a lullaby. close your eyes my sister fair

though the snow is falling and the trees are bare. and i will hold you by the hand

tonight there is nothing you need try to understand. you can sleep now

go to sleep. the daytime's dying and the nighttime's so deep. i'm standing by to sing a lullaby. close your eyes my mother wise when the waves are angry and the north train cries. i stopped those ghosts outside your door

mama

don't worry about those ghosts no more. you can sleep now

go to sleep

tomorrow comes but it will keep

i'm standing by to sing a lullaby

another lullaby

another lullaby

another lullaby.
