Lyrics
Lullaby
Verse 1
Here I am and there you are
I?m lonely and so far
So far away from you
It?s all so fragile and unreal
Not knowing what to feel
Not knowing what to do.
Then your voice comes on the phone and
I don?t feel so all alone
When I close my eyes you?re almost at home.
Chorus
So baby, sing me a lullaby
I?m just so tired that I could cry and
I?m feeling weak and I don?t know why
But I?ll get by if I can hear your lullaby.
Verse 2
Days are long and nights are longer
I?m not getting any stronger
Suiting up to take the hits.
Armor?s heavy and I?m small
It drags me down, I fall
Long to be rid of it.
When my world is caving in and
My head begins to spin
I just call you up again.
(Chorus)
