Melodime Lullaby lyrics

I had a bad dream, it wasn't just me
You were there too sittin' on the porch swing
It was raining, time was fading
I couldn't talk, then I woke up shaking
Let me get my words right
Let me get my feet firm on the ground

It's been a long year and I'm still here
But I don't want to scare you away, dear
So I ain't talkin' all to often
See, I know how you get, so I'm cautious
Let me get my words right
Let me get my feet firm on the ground

There are things that I'll risk, but it ain't this
I admit, I'm afraid, almost faithless

At the end of the day when the night hits
There I lay wide awake with my favorite
Lullaby, lullaby to keep me from my sleepin'
Lullaby, lullaby 'cause I cannot stop dreamin' of you

I got an old rose on my window
That you left back in May when you went home
And when the sun glows on the petals
I'm reminded of all the time I let go
Let me get my words right
Angel, all I need's a little time
I need a little more time, yeah
