Sweet, Sweet Lullaby

(album: If You Lived Here, You Would Be Home By Now - 2016)

She showed me a map to her past
And I showed her my rain
I had chosen the wanderer's path
And she chose to remain
Between right or wrong
We found a song to harmonize
If I'm dust and smoke
You know she must be a lullaby

In a time so tender
The tears make it clear
To a man that's blind
Blind to the winter
That he put within her
As he pines and sighs

He's not being cruel, he's only a fool
With a pocket full of lies
If I'm rain and snow
You know she knows where the sun shines

Sweet, sweet lullaby
Hold me tight
Help me make it through one more night
This dream can not harm you
So let it all go
Sweet, sweet lullaby

Thicker than thieves
Came apart at the seams
And a sad goodbye
Next came the daze
Of drifting through the haze
Of the single life
Not one to cry
He puts his hand to one eye
And wipes a tear away
Please kiss me goodnight
Turn out the light
Sweet lullaby

Sweet, sweet lullaby
Hold me tight
Help me make it through one more night
This dream can not harm you
So let it all go
Sweet, sweet lullaby
This dream can not harm you
So let it all go
Sweet, sweet lullaby
Sweet, sweet lullaby
