Art Garfunkel Another Lullaby song lyrics

Close your eyes, my pretty child

Though the night is dark and the wind is wild

I will stand beside your bed

Tonight there is nothing you need fear or dread

You can sleep now, go to sleep

The rain falls and the windows weep

I'm standing by to sing a lullaby

Close your eyes, my sister fair

Though the snow is falling and the trees are bare

And I will hold you by the hand

Tonight there is nothing you need try to understand

You can sleep now, go to sleep

The daytime's dyin' and the night time's so deep

I'm standing by to sing a lullaby

Close your eyes, my mother wise

When the waves are angry and the north train cries

I stop those ghosts outside your door

Mama, don't worry 'bout those ghosts no more

You can sleep now, go to sleep

Tomorrow comes but it will keep

I'm standing by to sing a lullaby

Another lullaby, another lullaby, another lullaby
