Hush pretty baby lay your sweet head down and rest
It’s a perfect little crime to have nothin’ and be so blessed
And you provoke me to complete abandon can’t believe that I’m still standin’
Knock me to the floor and lift me higher than before
Well, you complicate, liberate, intoxicate till I can’t see straight
Why hummingbird you are a gift for which a man would gladly die
Still me with your song, enchant me with your lover’s lullaby
With wings that beat the rhythm of my heart you’re not forgiven for
The blissful waking torture that you put me through, the agony of ecstasy that breaks this world makes a new
And as I lay me down you’re humming me to sleep
You tuck me in with a wandering melody
On night’s dark shroud you carry me to places far away
A portal sewn from wordless song and moonbeams
Lullaby and good night
You, you are my delight
Shining angels beside
My darling abide
What’s to fill the lonely, vacant hours tucked between the dusk and dawn?
A seeming-wakeful vivid world of wonder built upon your song
I’m as light as air, without a care, with you I’d share this moment for eternity
Your spell has hit me and I’ve fallen
Under your caress I effervesce, I do confess you’ve got the best of me
The dragon took the little paper boy to the land by the sea
Jake found a ladder to heaven in the depths of sleep
And my Honah Lee’s in the crook of your neck and the curves of your lips
Pressed gently together to sound the song of the child in me
You’ll bind our souls with a ring of string and sealing wax
And the song you’ve sung will last till the world’s done
Just because I’m drifting off doesn’t mean you have to stop
As your rhythm rocks me ever gently under
Lullaby and good night
You, you are my delight
Shining angels beside
My darling abide
