Softness and light
Drawn from my sight
Sun growing colder every day
Soul with no rest
Torn from my breast
Cry for my baby as I pray

How does the dark
Live in my heart
How can the oceans hold my tears
What will I find
What’s left behind
Call to me baby, I will hear

Sweetly, sweetly sing and I will follow you
Mother shelters child, it’s all I live to do

Dream of the soul
That won’t forget you
Hear as I sing my lullaby

Sweetly, sweetly sing and I will follow you
Mother shelters child, it’s all I live to do

One day I know
These arms will hold you
Here as I sing my lullaby
