Sing Me a Lullaby

Sing me a lullaby
Rock me gently to sleep
Whisper loving words in my ear
Make promises you can't keep

Sing me a lullaby
As the rain falls outside
Hold me close to you
When in your arms I hide

Sing me a lullaby
Lull me with your voice
Sing of our future together
As if I have a choise

Sing me a lullaby
Cloud any thoughts I have
About you deceiving me
That you could possibly be bad

Sing me a lullaby
Make sure that I'm asleep
Before you head out into the night
Into the arms of another
And make her promises you cant keep
