Sing To Me Sweet
It's late at night, it's a midnight sky
Sleeping time comes to soon, time for dreams and Minds to fly,
Sing to me, send me soaring,
Sing to me of nothing boring,
But of love and life,
Stories about a husband and wife.
Maybe sad, haunting tales of woe
Tall tales of battles, hero against foe
Immortal, strong, kind or sweet
Tell me stories of candy and treats
So I don't miss out, don't talk to fast,
And tell me stories of the ancient past.
Stay up all night,
'Till morning light
Until the dawn breaks,
Tell stories of mermaids in lakes
Stories of angels that glow.
Warlocks, villains, heroes and so.
Sing to me wonderful, sing to me sweet,
All until I fall asleep.
