Sing to me softly your tales of woe
I'll cradle you closely I won't let go
I'll speak to you gently of what I know
Don't you cry

Lay your head down darling
The Moon is sailing by
The stars are softly shining
The tide is full and high

We'll fly to the edge not as distant as it seems
And maybe we'll find there the key to your dreams
So you just, lay your head down darling
Sleep now, la, la, la, la, la

Winds blow, rains fall, but it's warm by the fire's light
Hush, don't you see, you're here with me
And there's dawn at the end of the night

Lay your head down darling
The Moon is sailing by
The stars are softly shining
The tide is full and high

We'll fly to the edge not as distant as it seems
And maybe we'll find there the key to your dreams
So you just, lay your head down darling
Sleep now, la, la, la, la, la

Lay your head down
Lay your head down
