Once there was a way to get back homeward. 
Once there was a way to get back home,
sleep pretty darling do not cry, 
and I will sing a lullaby.
Golden slumbers fill your eyes, 
smiles awake you when you rise.
Sleep pretty darling, do not cry, and I will sing a lullaby.

Once there was a way to get back homeward. 
Once there was a way to get back home.
Sleep pretty darling do not cry, 
and I will sing a lullaby.

Sweet, sweet life, 
I'm living today, don't bring me down, don't go away.
Give me just one more chance to make you want to stay.
Sweet, sweet, sweet life, 
I'm living, I'm living today. 
Don't bring me down, don't go away.
Don't go away, please, don't go away.

So tremble if you must, for the dust is still breathing.
And the trees are just the leaves on a big breathing globe.
And there's life in the rocks, and the seashells are listening
to the sounds of the sands as it rests on its way.
