lullaby

John Pizzarelli

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.
