Close your eyes Hush-a-bye
Weary from the torment of the day Hush-a-bye
Sink down in my arms and drift away Hush-a-bye
And sleep Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Sleep Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
I won't let the darkness make you fear for an unseen hand
If, while in your sleep, I should steal a kiss it's because
I understand you Hush-a-bye
Dream of what you know, things that please you Hush-a-bye
I'll do what I can Hush-a-bye
To guard you while you sleep Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Sleep Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
I won't let the darkness make you fear for an unseen hand
If, while in your sleep, I should steal a kiss it's because
I understand you Hush-a-bye
Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Sleep Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Shh Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Sleep Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Spread canvas Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Drift under an easy sail Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
On the skin of the sea Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Sleep Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
Hush-a-bye Hush-a-bye
