Goodnight, my angel <br />Time to close your eyes <br />And save these questions for another day <br />I think I know what you've been asking me <br />I think you know what I've been trying to say <br />I promised I would never leave you <br />And you should always know <br />Wherever you may go <br />No matter where you are <br />I never will be far away <br />Goodnight, my angel <br />Now it's time to sleep <br />And still so many things I want to say <br />Remember all the songs you sang for me <br />When we went sailing on an emerald bay <br />And like a boat out on the ocean <br />I'm rocking you to sleep <br />The water's dark <br />And deep inside this ancient heart <br />You'll always be a part of me <br />Goodnight, my angel <br />Now it's time to dream <br />And dream how wonderful your life will be <br />Someday your child may cry <br />And if you sing this lullaby <br />Then in your heart <br />There will always be a part of me <br />Someday we'll all be gone <br />But lullabies go on and on... <br />They never die <br />That's how you <br />And I <br />Will be<br /><br />William Brooks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lullabye-goodnight-my-angel/
