Cradle

We were better on the first time
Love was simple as a mother and a baby child
Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love
Oh-oh, laying wide awake
Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby?
We've fallen, fallen out of love

Oh, no, I try everything to reach you
Send you out but you would only read through
A picture book with no words
A bedtime story I'm pretending
Left me with a happy ending
The sheep I count come in herds
When I'm gone, I creep, but you gossip in your sleep
So I'll know all the secrets you keep under the sheets

Now, we were better on the first time
Love was simple as a mother and a baby child
Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love
Oh-oh, laying wide awake
Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby?
We've fallen, fallen out of love

So please don't let me fall asleep
These childish dreams only make me weaker
So please do something, wake me, make a sound
I'm scared, I won't wake up before I hit the ground

We were better on the first time
Love was simple as a mother and a baby child
Then you rocked our cradle and we fell out of love
Oh-oh, laying wide awake
Tell me how could I forget all the words to a lullaby?
We've fallen, fallen out of love

We've fallen, fallen out of love
