Sleep My Darling

Intro

Hush now, my little one, close your eyes so sweet

Mama's here singing soft, through the night we'll meet

Verse

Rock-a-bye baby, in your cradle so fine

Dreams of tomorrow, all yours and all mine

Stars up above, twinkling just for you

Moonlight's a blanket, pulling you through

Chorus

Sleep, sleep, my darling (my darling)

La-la-la, la-la-la, drift away far (drift away)

Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye, no more tears tonight

Mama loves you forever, under the soft light

Sleep, sleep, my angel (my angel)

La-la-la, la-la-la, everything's right

Verse

Gentle winds blowing, like a kiss on your cheek

Flowers are sleeping, no reason to speak

Hold my hand tightly, feel the warmth in my song

All of the world's worries, where they belong

Chorus

Sleep, sleep, my darling (my darling)

La-la-la, la-la-la, drift away far (drift away)

Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye, no more tears tonight

Mama loves you forever, under the soft light

Sleep, sleep, my angel (my angel)

La-la-la, la-la-la, everything's right

Chorus

Sleep, sleep, my darling (my darling)

La-la-la, la-la-la, drift away far (drift away)

Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye, no more tears tonight

Mama loves you forever, under the soft light

Outro

Shh-shh, goodnight, my precious one

La-la-la... sleep on...
