Moonlight Lullaby

from Sweet & Sorrow by Catherine Ruth

lyrics

The moon was an eyelash on the cheek of the night
I was holding you tight, my love
Carry your worry in the crook of my arm
And sing until you’re asleep

I’d be lying if I said
I hadn’t thought of this moment for years
Though I’m tired, you’re tired, and we’re tired
I wouldn’t trade it for anything
Anything

The moon was an eyelash on the cheek of the night
You were shining as bright, my love
Oh night be forgiving give us over to sleep
At least before morning comes

I’d be lying if I said
I hadn’t thought of this moment for years
Though I’m tired, you’re tired, and we’re tired
I wouldn’t trade it for anything
Anything

This was always old
Like birds will find their way home
Holding you warm and close
Don’t think I’ll ever let go

Dreaming in the dawn
As darkness turns into day
The morning echoing
Some moments are meant to be
