Lullaby

hush sweet child,
don't make a sound.
close your eyes,
to dreamland you are bound.

quiet little angel,
i'll sing you to sleep.
my song will fade away
but the memories are yours to keep

shush innocent baby,
listen to me word by word.
see where it takes your mind
and what to you, is heard.

this lullaby is only yours,
and it shall continue through.
Remember these nights of song
and how at one time, it was all you ever knew.
