This is a lullaby
For your broken heart
It's time to start dreaming again
And this is a last goodbye
To everything that made you cry
This is a time of reckoning
And I reckon
If you're scared to close your eyes
You can whisper this lullaby
And feel my breath upon your ear
And maybe you'll fall asleep
To the rhythm of your lover's heartbeat
Even when I'm miles away from here
This is a requiem
For everything you've ever been
That you never really wanted to be
But this is a slight return
To sad goodbyes and lessons learned
This is a time of reckoning
And I reckon
If you're scared to close your eyes
You can whisper this lullaby
And feel my breath upon your ear
And maybe you'll fall asleep
Keeping time to your lover's heartbeat
Even when I'm miles away from here
