when you're so lonely
lyin in bed
nights closed its eyes
but you can't rest your head
everyones sleepin
all through the house
you wish you could dream
but forgot to somehow
sing this lullaby to yourself
sing this lullaby to yourself
and if you are waitin
waitin for me
i'll be home soon darling
i guarantee
i'll be home sunday
just in one week
dry up your tears
if you start to weep
and sing this lullaby to yourself
sing this lullaby to yourself
lullaby, i'm not nearby
sing this lullaby to yourself
don't you cry
no don't you cry
sing this lullaby to yourself
cos when i arrive dear
it won't be that long
no it won't seem like anytime
that i've been gone
it ain't the first time
it won't be the last
won't you remember these words
to help the time pass
so when you're so lonely
lyin in bed
and nights closed its eyes
but you can't rest your head
everyones sleepin
all through the house
you wish you could dream
but forgot to somehow
sing this lullaby to yourself
sing this lullaby to yourself
sing this lullaby, sing this lullaby
sing this lullaby to yourself
