I was tired enough to weep
He still looked me in the eye
My baby boy only got his sleep
From the music of the lullaby
Even after we said the prayers
Many minutes did pass by
But he was soon taken unawares
By the magic of the lullaby
Yes, he's had milk to drink
And the comfort of a good cry
Now, his eyes close in sync
To the melody of the lullaby
I bestow on him a loving kiss
I tiptoe out and tell him bye
I owe this sweet rest and peace
To the miracle of the lullaby
My baby boy is a tough one to soothe to sleep. I've had to try many methods. The lullaby once came through for me and kept him asleep for a good while! :-)
