Ron Pope - Lullaby lyrics

She left town on a 3 o'clock train Goin' God knows where...far away And the last words she spoke to me's "I'll be all right." She grew up in a sad dark place The kind of path you don't retrace Been tryin' to wake from nightmares All her days Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby The LA sun, it warms her face And she don't seem so far away She sends photographs To hold me tight I call her on the phone again And ask if she'll come home, and then I won't hang up Until she says she might Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby I don't know if I believe I'm everything this woman needs But I swear on my soul I'd rather die than let her go She's been searching from the start For pieces of her tattered heart I know...but I'm not sure... These winter nights, she's in my prayers I wake to find she isn't there... And every time I laugh until I cry Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight Oh goodnight...and this is her lullaby This is her lullaby...
