Go to sleep my babies
|
||
|
Don't you wake up
|
||
|
The stars will keep you company
|
||
|
So close your eyes
|
||
|
Old Uncle Moon will shine his dearest sweetest dreams
|
||
|
And hold you in your arms
|
||
|
Until the morning comes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Night Light
|
||
|
|
||
|
Dark the night, not a sound
|
||
|
Damp and cold, frosty ground
|
||
|
Above your head the lion screams
|
||
|
To tear you from your moonlit dreams.
|
||
|
Damp with sweat, mouth is dry
|
||
|
Twisted branches catch the eye
|
||
|
Beside your bed the angel stands
|
||
|
You cannot touch his withered hands.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Guardian Angel
|
||
|
|
||
|
As the lion's eyes dance before me
|
||
|
They are kindly yet bloody red
|
||
|
I can see that he is smiling
|
||
|
But I cannot live inside his head.
|
||
|
There the needle stands before me
|
||
|
I climb inside it towards the light
|
||
|
Where the angel stands in glory
|
||
|
His sword of peace defends the night.
|
||
|
So the world is spread before
|
||
|
As I fly high on angel wings
|
||
|
But the angel is deceiving
|
||
|
For he is weeping as he sings.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Night Light (continued)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Early birds, morning breeze
|
||
|
Spinning leaves, sleepy trees
|
||
|
Gently tap the window pane
|
||
|
It's good to see the sun again.
|
