Roof Top Lullaby
Mother, is there something in the sky?
Something up there that they hide
A jewel for me and you
An apple tree with fallen fruit
Oh daughter
Now I don't know but I believe
That its beauty's beyond words
It's like a tune that I can't sing
But I've heard it sung by birds
It' a rooftop lullaby
Falling from the sky
Sends us to sleep tonight
It's the apple in your eye
Keeps you as sweet as pie
Dreaming through the night
Oh father
Now won't you tell me if you know
Where does half of the moon go
When it's not up in the sky?
It disappears before my eyes
Oh my son
Why does morning break each day?
Why do people pass away?
Oh it's the mystery in truth
It's the innocence of youth
Or a rooftop lullaby
Falling from the sky
Sends us to sleep tonight
It's the apple in your eye
Keeps you as sweet as pie
Dreaming through the night
It's a rooftop lullaby
Falling from the sky
Sends us to sleep tonight
Lull-lull-lull-lull-lullaby
Something up there that they hide
A jewel for me and you
An apple tree with fallen fruit
Oh daughter
Now I don't know but I believe
That its beauty's beyond words
It's like a tune that I can't sing
But I've heard it sung by birds
It' a rooftop lullaby
Falling from the sky
Sends us to sleep tonight
It's the apple in your eye
Keeps you as sweet as pie
Dreaming through the night
Oh father
Now won't you tell me if you know
Where does half of the moon go
When it's not up in the sky?
It disappears before my eyes
Oh my son
Why does morning break each day?
Why do people pass away?
Oh it's the mystery in truth
It's the innocence of youth
Or a rooftop lullaby
Falling from the sky
Sends us to sleep tonight
It's the apple in your eye
Keeps you as sweet as pie
Dreaming through the night
It's a rooftop lullaby
Falling from the sky
Sends us to sleep tonight
Lull-lull-lull-lull-lullaby
