"Crystal Lullaby" lyrics - CARPENTERS
Listen to the song he sings
Can't you see his music brings her
Crystal sleep
�
As her heavy eyelids fall
He's taking her to where the dolls
Rule the world
�
And in that land of make believe
Is where he'll leave her sleeping
Softly warm
In a crystal lullaby
�
He's weaving her a paper castle
Where dancing clowns with tassels made of fur
Welcome her into their world
That lives inside the dreams
Of every little girl
�
She's guarded by a brave tin soldier
Sitting on her shoulder
Taken there
In a crystal lullaby
�
Sometimes when I listen to
The velvet song that fills the summer afternoon
Something deep within me sighs
And wishes for the peaceful skies
Of long ago
�
(*) That wrapped my cares
In silver air
And carried them away
Leaving me ...
And a crystal lullaby
