Layton & Johnstone — Lullaby of the Leaves

[Verse 1] Cradle me where Southern skies can watch me with a million eyes Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves Cover me with heaven's blue and let me dream a dream or two Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves [Verse 2] I'm breezing along, along with the breeze I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh A pine melody caressing the shore Familiar to me, I've heard it before Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, that Southland [Verse 3] Don't I feel it in my soul, and don't I know I've reached my goal? Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves! [Bridge] Rustling of the leaves used to be my lullaby In the sunny south when I was a tot so high And now that I have grown I find myself alone [Verse 1] Cradle me where Southern skies can watch me with a million eyes Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves Cover me with heaven's blue and let me dream a dream or two Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves [Verse 2] I'm breezing along, along with the breeze I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh A pine melody caressing the shore Familiar to me, I've heard it before Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, that Southland [Verse 3] Don't I feel it in my soul, and don't I know I've reached my goal? Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves!
