Lover's Lullabye Lyrics - Singles - Ian Janis

Lay down and slumber 

Mama's boy is torn asunder 

All the fields have gone grey 

All the leaves are gone brown 

Let me tell you a story 

Lay own, I know you're weary 

While the star's in the sky 

While the moon's on the rise 

Lay down and don't you wake till morning 

Close your eyes and helpless through the night 

Lay down and dream of love and glory 

This is a lover's lullabye 

Once was a magician 

Fair he was, and handsome 

And he brought to the table 

All the fool's gold and wine 

And he promised us three favors 

Said he was a saviour 

But we drank all his glory 

And we borrowed all his time 

Lay down, and don't you wake till morning 

Close your eyes and helpless through the night 

Lay down and dream of love and glory 

This is a lover's lullabye 

My love, sleep tight my love 

And softly fade away 

The moon was made of old green cheese 

To keep the night away 

Softly now, close your eyes 

Lightly will you fade 

The moon was made for wakeful boys 

To keep the night away 

Lay down, and don't wake till morning 

Close your eyes all through the night 

Lay down in all your glory 

This is a lullabye 

Lay down, and don't wake till morning 

Close your eyes all through the night 

Lay down in all your glory 

This is a lullabye 

This is a lullabye
