Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)

Goodnight, my angel, time to close your eyes

And save these questions for another day

I think I know what you've been asking me

I think you know what I've been trying to say

I promised I would never leave you

Then you should always know

Wherever you may go, no matter where you are

I never will be far away

Goodnight, my angel, now it's time to sleep

And still, so many things I want to say

Remember all the songs you sang for me

When we went sailing on an emerald bay

And like a boat out on the ocean

I'm rocking you to sleep

The water's dark, and deep inside this ancient heart

You'll always be a part of me

Goodnight, my angel, now it's time to dream

And dream how wonderful your life will be

Someday your child may cry, and if you sing this lullaby

Then in your heart, there will always be a part of me

Someday we'll all be gone

But lullabies go on and on

They never die

That's how you and I will be
