Lyrics
Last Lullaby
Written by Gene Mills
© 2008 Heart Pine Music
Daylight fades, treefrogs sing
Fireflies flash, night birds take wing
Feel the breeze, smell the air
Feel my fingers in your hair
[Chorus] Close your eyes, sigh real deep
It's all right to fall asleep
I don't know how to say good bye
so I'll just sing this last lullaby
In my mind you'll always be
young and strong and here with me
Now you're tired and want to rest
one more time to be caressed
[Chorus]
Life is short, but memory's long
Your body's weak, but love is strong
Hear my voice, don't you fear
It's all right, I'm right here
[Chorus]
