Lyrics Peter Hollens – Lullaby

Goodnight, my angel, time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you’ve been asking me
I think you know what I’ve been trying to say

Goodnight, my angel, now it’s time to sleep
And still, so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an aeroplane
And like a boat out on the ocean
I’m rocking you to sleep
The water’s dark and deep
Inside this ancient heart
You’ll always be a part of me

Goodnight, my angel, now it’s time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry
And if you sing this lullaby
Then in your heart, there will always be a part of me
Someday, we’ll all be gone
But lullabies go on and on
They never die, and that how you and I will be
