When gold gives way to silver
and the world's gone off to sleep,
Darling there's no need to shiver
beneath your cotton sheets.
I know your heart's empty
and you feel so cold inside.

As you try so hard to rest those weary eyes.

Let me show you how to reignite the flames that burned so bright.
Help you grow to find the strength to oust your demons from the night.
Girl I know that I can lead you from
the darkness into light.

If I could be with you tonight...

My love could be your lullaby.
My love could be your lullaby.
Darling there's no need to cry.
              It's gonna be alright.
Let my love be your lullaby,
              tonight.


I know it's hard for you
to feel safe with me.
I know too much...
know how to touch you
         where it hurts.
But I just want to sing your melody,
and it sure helps to know the verse!

Let me feel your heartbeat next to mine
now baby, open up your mind
and let our bodies intertwine.
We'll be frozen here in time.
You feel my touch, you close your eyes
and feel my passion burn inside.

Then just lie here with me tonight.

Let our love be your lullaby.
Let our love be your lullaby.
Darling it's just you and I
              and we'll be alright.

Our love will be our lullaby,

              tonight.
