John Pizzarelli - Lullaby lyrics

rate me

I wrote this song because of you

For all the things I meant to do

Lullaby, help me try to tell her

We were a star, we had it all

But even shooting stars must fall

Lullaby, tell me why

Oh, so many times I tried to say

Those things I felt inside

But words would hide from me

But there will come a time

When these words I say in rhyme

Will hold you in a whisper

And that whisper will be mine

So if you listen you will hear

A laughing smile, a silent tear

And when you hear these words

You'll know it is true, I wrote this lullaby for you
