The Lullaby

I hear you calling for me
Sometimes you cry in your sleep
'Cause you don't understand why
I can't be with you tonight

But baby close your eyes
And try to sleep for awhile
You'll hold the pillow tonight
But soon I'll be by your side

I know you wonder if I
Know how you're feeling inside
So many things on your mind
Too much to think for a child

But baby close your eyes
And try to sleep for awhile
I know you want me right now
But I'll be home tomorrow

I know you said not to worry
'Cause you'll be home in a hurry
But I just wanted to tell you
How much I really do miss you

Let me tell you, you're always
On my mind, on my mind

I hear you calling for me
Sometimes I cry in my sleep, yeah
Although I understand why
I can't be with you tonight, ohh

So I'll just close my eyes, yes, I will
I'll try to sleep for awhile
I hold my pillow real tight, baby, baby
'Cause soon I'll be by your side

I'm gonna try not to worry
I'm coming home in a hurry
But I just wanted to tell you, baby
How much I really do miss you

So baby close your eyes
And try to sleep for awhile
You'll hold the pillow tonight
But soon I'll be by your side

So baby close your eyes
And try to sleep for awhile
You'll hold the pillow tonight
But soon I'll be by your side

So baby close your eyes
And try to sleep for awhile
You'll hold the pillow tonight
But soon I'll be by your side
