David Gray Lyrics
Lullaby

 
Its a sad old world thats turning 
Tonight as I slide through the streams 
Moonlight and memory burning 
And in my hand your broken dreams 

My watery eyes 
I sing for you this lullaby 
Let the shadow fall from your window 
Let the morning light fill your head 
Stand up and let the wild wind blow 
Right into your soul 
Till the night is dead. 

All these useless emotions churning round 
As I search these bare walls for a clue 
And all the time the truth is flashing in my mind 
That when a heart gets broken, ain't nothing you can do 

My watery eyes 
I sing for you this lullaby 
Let the shadow fall from your window 
Let the morning light fill your head 
Stand up and let the wild wind blow 
Right into your soul 
Till the night is dead. 

And I'm packing my belongings 
I'll be gone before the noon arrives 
Cos I know theres no use pretending 
Hey but soon it'll all be alright 

Let the shadow fall from your window 
Let the morning light fill your head 
Stand up and let the wild wind blow 
Right into your soul 
Till the night is dead. 
See the dawn break gold and the night is dead 

Hear The Bells!
