Natalie Merchant - Sweet & A Lullaby lyrics

[Verse 1:] There's not a rose where'er I seek As comely as my baby's cheek There's not a comb of honey-bee So full of sweets as babe to me [Chorus:] And it's so sweet Sweet and a lullaby [Verse 2:] There's not a star that shines on high Is brighter than my baby's eye There's not a boat upon the sea Can dance as baby does for me [Chorus] [Verse 3:] No silk was ever spun so fine As is the hair of baby mine My baby smells more sweet to me Than smells in spring the elder tree [Chorus]
