Lullaby In the Sunset

Oh, my sweetheart close your eyes
With the sunset at the sea
Let me sing you a lullaby

Rest in dreams where peace will be
Rest in places filled with love
Rest where your soul is free

I am here to hold you tight
By your side, I will always be
Rest my love, through the night
In the colors of the sunset to see

Listen, the seabirds are calling
Waves are splashing the shore
The sun is slowly falling
There are no worries anymore

A lullaby of love is playing for you
Music in the wind
Carrying you all night through

On wings of angels you will fly
Safely in the open sky

Rest my love, in the beauty of the night
As the skies sparkle with stars
Rest in the calming moonlight
I will never be far

Heidi Sands
