You asked me for a song to sing To our unborn son So that he will know me Even before his life´s begun How do I soothe you when you laugh
And when you cry? How do I ease your mind?
Like a lullaby Like a lullaby
She said it´s not enough for you to love me You must love the sky And the dirt beneath your feet And the endless questions why And you must love the chasing time Like colors flicker in the sky And we´re never going to catch them, no
But we´re gonna try We´re gonna try
Sleep baby boy
And I wonder what you´ll see When you hear my voice Quick, quick now, let´s grab the time Like clay it´s gonna dry Five years comes along Five years passes by She and I will hold you And each other ´til we die And everything we say And do for you
