Childrens Lullaby — текст песни (Vertical Horizon)

Little girl was down by the waterside

The sun so hot and the roses so red where she lie

As little boys sit and watch as she twirls all around

Sunny smiles not a raincloud could bring that girl down

But now....



Whats behind those big brown eyes

Do you dream at night

Without your lullaby



Little boy sits alone as he sings in the dark

Wondering if his own dreams had pulled them apart

He sings a song of tomorrow he never can see

Mostly sings of a lost little girls memory

And now...



As his dreams go flashing by

He begins to hear

A lonely lullaby



Well now

We used to sing

And we used to cry

Through everything

In our childrens lullaby



Little girl on the street with nobody around

Has her head in the air dirty feet on the ground

She shuts her eyes and she wonders is this a mistake

Now shes gone from the warmth of her little boy days

And still...



She believes that shell get by

On her own without

Her little boys lullaby



Little boy prays to God to answer his song

To hold her hand when everyone elses are gone

Time goes by and the wounds slowly turn into scars

So he makes his final wish on the midnight stars

And he screams...



Little girl wont you hear my cry

Wont you come back home

To your lovers lullaby



Little girl down by the waterside

Goodbye
