Lyrics
I'll sing you a lullaby, as soon as I'm through
I'll softly kiss your cheek like your daddy used to do
When he held you close and tight
You had no fear of any noises in the night
One time you woke up, in the middle of a dream
You put your little hands on your ears so you wouldn't hear them scream
You slowly opened the door
But daddy's gone and momma's tears are on the floor
Chorus:
Don't cry, baby don't cry
He sure picked a bad time to say goodbye
Don't cry, baby don't cry
You never got the chance to ask him why
I'll sing you a lullabye, so you won't be alone
But when you close your eyes, you still dream he's coming home
As the days turn into years, hope floats with memories down a waterfall of tears
Chorus
Bridge:
Maybe he was restless
Maybe he wanted to see the world
Maybe, won't mend a broken heart
Or dry up the tears of a little girl
Chorus
