A Lullaby

Close your eyes so tenderly
For the night sweet night
Is here with dreams for thee
All the sky there in is cloudless
As in a new and fresh today
Like yesterdays of dreams to be
That no one had the time to see
The sweetest joy for sleepy eyes
With depth of clearest bluest skies
Above earth so large and unknown
Further away than tallest trees grown
Close your eyes so tenderly
Always continue to think of me
For I will guide you in your flight
Into dreams beyond you can't see
Always further and more fresh
Be in fantasies of dreams play
Onto tomorrows we both will be
Continuing visions for you and me
Colors born from dreams untrue
We waved together quite so new
