LULLABY

THERE’S A LAND THAT I HEARD OF IN A LULLABY

AND I REMEMBER THE DREAM OF YOU AND I

WE WERE SITTING TOGETHER ‘NEATH THE DEEP BLUE SKY

WITH THE MOON UP ABOVE US SHINING IN YOUR EYES

NOW I CAN’T SEE SO FAR

SORROW SIPHONED UP THE HOPE AND LEFT JUST DRIED UP TEARS

THERE WAS NOTHING I USED TO FEAR

LIFE OVER THE RAINBOW NOW JUST SEEMS AN EMPTY LURE

WHEN STUCK IN THE MUCK OF THE OTHER SIDE

WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE

I USED TO BELIEVE IN THOSE FAIRY TALES

AWAY TO A STRANGE LAND MY HEART AND MIND WOULD SAIL

WHERE THE COLORS ARE VIVID AND THE AROMA SWEET

THE SOLSTICE SURROUNDS YOU FOREVER YOU WILL MEET

NOW I CAN’T SEE SO FAR

SORROW SIPHONED UP THE HOPE AND LEFT JUST DRIED UP TEARS

THERE WAS NOTHING I USED TO FEAR

LIFE OVER THE RAINBOW NOW JUST SEEMS AN EMPTY LURE

WHEN STUCK IN THE MUCK OF THE OTHER SIDE

WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE

FOREVER IS NOT SO SWEET

I CANNOT SEEM TO SEE SO FAR AWAY ANYMORE

SORROW SIPHONED UP THE HOPE AND LEFT JUST DRIED UP TEARS

WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE

LIFE OVER THE RAINBOW IS JUST AN EMPTY LURE

WHEN STUCK IN THE MUCK OF THIS SIDE

THERE WAS NOTHING I USED TO FEAR

IT’S TIME TO SEEK OUT THE OFFERINGS INSIDE

RELEASE THE RAINBOW AND TRY NOT TO HIDE

FEELINGS COME BEFORE ME AND THE ANGER FLOWS

BUT YOU’VE GOT TO GOT TO GOT TO

LET IT GO

I’VE FOUND MY LULLABY IT WAS ALWAYS HERE

IT’S ON THE INSIDE YOU CAN GO THERE ANYTIME
