(Twinkle, twinkle, little star) How I wonder where you are. It seems like only yesterday Our little girl was playing With windup toys and little boys Dolls and color crayons. Then at night she'd come to me All sleepy eyed and saying Daddy will you sing to me When I get through praying? Sing me a nursery rhyme While I count the little sheep Sing me a nursery rhyme So I can go to sleep.
She was our pride and joy A rainbow just beginning We loved her so we couldn't see Our love was nearly ending. Day by day we tried to say The love we knew she needed I can't forget the night I left She came to me and pleaded. Sing me a nursery rhyme While I count the little sheep Sing me a nursery rhyme So I can go to sleep. (Twinkle, twinkle, little star) How I wonder where you are...
