Lost Night’s Lullabye
[Rachael]
It's another endless night
It’s another strange delight
It's one lost night's lullaby
It’s another warning sign
It’s another half spent time
It's just one lost nights time gone by
It's another way back home
Only seen when you don’t want to go
It’s a blind man’s twisted road
The breadcrumbs thrown, that disappear behind
It’s another waning tide it's another time gone by
It’s one last night's lullaby
It's another half read rhyme sent to you this one short time
But there’s no reply at all
It's another one way sign from a past I sacrificed
For a future that I can’t recall
It’s anothеr child by night sailing on a pale thin silver light
Past the star that lеads back home
The four winds blow you on another mile
It’s another distant sign
It's another time gone by
It's just one last nights lullaby
On a ship of half dreamt dreams
I sent my wishes out to sea
But there's no reply at all
Sailing past a blood red moon
Through the years and wordless tunes
To a place I can’t retrace at all
It’s long and lavish life lived away in one lost stolen night
Gone to wander in the wild
Time steals the child the final chime gone by
It’s another endless song
It’s another memory gone
It's just one lost night’s lullaby
