Lyrics for Lullaby
Another star, a lover down / Another stone falls at my feet / Sky is grey, stone as cloud / There there on another cold street / And the writing on the wall, all the letters to my feet / Whispering everywhere a note to catch another’s dream
And fall, fall, falling down / Tumbling to the ground / And rise, rise up again / The whispering’s in the wind / I said the whispering’s in the wind
On another sad day she wants to play a whispering game at my door / And the feeling’s in the air making me make me want more / And I’ll never drown, no I’ll never fall / ‘Cause falling is fallen down stairs / And there, there’s another step, there, there’s another place / There’s another stone over there / And there, there’s another step, there, there’s another place / There’s another stone over there
And fall, fall, falling down / Tumbling to the ground / And rise, rise up again / The whispering’s in the wind / I said the whispering’s in the wind
Crimsony poses, big and white roses / Weaving together sweet melodies / A story she knows so well, a tale she thought she’d never tell / Singing her songs at my feet / And floating in the wind they’re there whispering in other’s ears tales and tells of other’s lives slowly, gently waiting there / It’s a story I know well, a tale I thought I’d never tell / Singing my songs at your feet
And fall, fall, falling down / Tumbling to the ground / And rise, rise up again / The whispering’s in the wind / I said the whispering’s in the wind
