When it's dark out and it's cold
And you're needing a shoulder
There's one thing before you fall asleep
With the upsides and the downsides this one thing is a smooth ride
To show you what you mean to me
I just want to sing you a lullaby
With the wicked ways of the world today
Do you feel shunned, have they looked away?
This will help you dream all you can be
You can scratch 'til you're bleeding, but there's one thing to believe in
Is that we have all we need, indeed
I just want to sing you a lullaby
Lazy days with our cares away, we can do what we want
And all our time is free
We can make plans and break them
Surprises awaken
To see that you are in my arms
And then you'll see that all your dreams are safe with me
And we can be in calm
I just want to sing you
I just want to sing you
I just want to sing you a lullaby
