Father's Lullaby

Father's Lullaby - Nick Lachey

Remember when I was small

My first memory

I count the shadows on the wall

Too restless to dream

My dad came in to tuck me in

When i couldn't sleep

And he'd comfort me with this melody

Here's my father's lullaby

Baby you don't have to cry

Now it's time to close your eyes

Let's say goodnight

With my fathers lullaby

Now it's yours like it was mine

So it's time to close your eyes and say goodnight

I wonder where the time has gone

As i hold your hand

It seems like only yesterday

He stood where i stand

Now i come in to tuck you in

As history repeats

Can i comfort you like he taught me too

Now here's my fathers lullaby

Baby you don't have to cry

Now it's time to close your eyes

Let's say goodnight

With my fathers lullaby

Now it's yours like it was mine

So it's time to close your eyes and say goodnight

'Cause i hope

That someday

When daylight has gone

You'll be singing these same words to your little one

Here's my father's lullaby

Baby you don't have to cry

Now it's time to close your eyes

Let's say goodnight

With my fathers lullaby

Now it's yours like it was mine

So it's time to close your eyes and say goodnight

Goodnight
