The Carpenters - Crystal Lullaby lyrics

rate me

Listen to the song he sings<br />

Can?t you see his music brings her crystal sleep?<br />

As her heavy eyelids fall<br />

He?s taking her to where the dolls rule the world<br />

<br />

And in that land of make believe<br />

Is where he'll leave her sleeping<br />

Softly warm in a crystal lullaby<br />

<br />

He?s weaving her a paper castle<br />

Where dancing clowns with tassels made of fur<br />

Welcome her into their world<br />

That lives inside the dreams of every little girl<br />

<br />

She?s guarded by a brave tin soldier<br />

Sitting on her shoulder<br />

Taken there in a crystal lullaby<br />

<br />

Sometimes when I listen to<br />

The velvet song that fills the summer afternoon<br />

Something deep within me sighs<br />

And wishes for the peaceful skies of long ago<br />

<br />

That wrapped my cares in silver air<br />

And carried them away leaving me<br />

And a crystal lullaby<br />

<br />

That wrapped my cares in silver air<br />

And carried them away leaving me<br />

And a crystal lullaby<br /><br />
