Remember when I was so small
My first memory
I'd count the shadows on the wall too restless to sleep
My Dad came in to tuck me in when I couldn't sleep
And he's 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 father's 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 to?

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 father's 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 come
You'll be singing these same words to your little boy

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 father's lullaby
Now it's yours like it was mine
So it's time to close your eyes and say goodnight

Good night
Good night
