Lullaby for E.
If you’d only seen the things I’d seen
And walked the roads I’d walked alone
Maybe you would know why I sing
And why I love this sad, old song
Cause long ago and far away
There lived a girl who knew no fame
All these years gone by and here I am
I sing her song and wear her name
Dear, please remember
I will always be here for you
All through the dark and lonely days to come
And when you grow weary
I will sing a song of mercy
Like this sweet lullaby to carry you home
Carry you home
Carry you…
So if you think that you can choose
The way this life lays out your cards
Think of all those years gone by and still
We sing our songs of broken hearts
Dear, please remember
I will always be here for you
All through the dark and lonely days to come
And when you grow weary
I will sing a song of mercy
Like this sweet lullaby to carry you home
Carry you home
Carry you…
And kingdoms rise and then they fall
And cities die, as do we all
But there will always be this sad, old song
To touch your heart
And warm your soul.
