Listen to the song he sings
|
Can't you see his music brings her
|
Crystal sleep
|
?
As her heavy eyelids fall
|
He's taking her to where the dolls
|
Rule the world
|
?
And in that land of make believe
|
Is where he'll leave her sleeping
|
Softly warm
|
In a crystal lullaby
|
?
He's weaving her a paper castle
|
Where dancing clowns with tassels made of fur
|
Welcome her into their world
|
That lives inside the dreams
|
Of every little girl
|
?
She's guarded by a brave tin soldier
|
Sitting on her shoulder
|
Taken there
|
In a crystal lullaby
|
?
Sometimes when I listen to
|
The velvet song that fills the summer afternoon
|
Something deep within me sighs
|
And wishes for the peaceful skies
|
Of long ago
|
?
(*) That wrapped my cares
|
In silver air
|
And carried them away
|
Leaving me...
|
And a crystal lullaby
|
