Lay Down Your Head

My sweet sleepy baby, lay down your head
The moon will bring you her soft lullaby
Just lie here with me so warm in our bed
And soon, the rising sun will greet the sky

My sweet sleepy darling, go to your dreams
I'll quietly soothe you and sing to you
Watch the raindrops fall from an angel's wings
And turn into a flower's morning dew

My sweet sleepy child, lay down your head
Now I have spoken this soft lullaby
Take with you tomorrow, all that I've said
Long after darkness has bid his goodbye

Take with you tomorrow all of my joy
Wrapped in this blanket, my sweet baby boy
