Cradle

We were better on the first time Love was simple as a mother and a baby child Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love Oh-oh, laying wide awake Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby? We've fallen, fallen out of love Oh, no, I try everything to reach you Send you out but you would only read through A picture book with no words A bedtime story I'm pretending Left me with a happy ending The sheep I count come in herds When I'm gone, I creep, but you gossip in your sleep So I'll know all the secrets you keep under the sheets Now, we were better on the first time Love was simple as a mother and a baby child Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love Oh-oh, laying wide awake Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby? We've fallen, fallen out of love So please don't let me fall asleep These childish dreams only make me weaker So please do something, wake me, make a sound I'm scared, I won't wake up before I hit the ground We were better on the first time Love was simple as a mother and a baby child Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love Oh-oh, laying wide awake Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby? We've fallen, fallen out of love We've fallen, fallen out of love
