Lullaby Of The Leaves
Cradle me where Southern skies can watch me with a million eyes
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Cover me with heaven's blue an let me dream a dream or two
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
A pine melody caressing the shore
Familiar to me, I've heard it before
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, that Southland
Don't I feel it in my soul, and don't I know I've reached my goal?
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Rustling of the leaves used to be my lullaby
In the sunny south when I was a tot so high
And now that I have grown
I find myself alone
Cradle me where Southern skies can watch me with a million eyes
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Cover me with heaven's blue an let me dream a dream or two
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
A pine melody caressing the shore
Familiar to me, I've heard it before
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, that Southland
Don't I feel it in my soul, and don't I know I've reached my goal?
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Cover me with heaven's blue an let me dream a dream or two
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
A pine melody caressing the shore
Familiar to me, I've heard it before
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, that Southland
Don't I feel it in my soul, and don't I know I've reached my goal?
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Rustling of the leaves used to be my lullaby
In the sunny south when I was a tot so high
And now that I have grown
I find myself alone
Cradle me where Southern skies can watch me with a million eyes
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Cover me with heaven's blue an let me dream a dream or two
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
A pine melody caressing the shore
Familiar to me, I've heard it before
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, that Southland
Don't I feel it in my soul, and don't I know I've reached my goal?
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
