Lullaby of London

As I walked down by the riverside One evening in the spring
Heard a long gone song From days
gone by Blown in on the great North wind
Though there is no lonesome corncrake's cry Of sorrow and delight
You can hear the cars And the shouts
from bars And the laughter and the fights
May the ghosts that howled Round the
house at night Never keep you from your sleep
May they all sleep tight Down in hell tonight Or wherever they may be
As I walked on with a heavy heart Then a stone danced on the tide
And the song went on Though the lights
were gone And the North wind gently sighed
And an evening breeze coming from the East That kissed the riverside
So I pray now child that you sleep tonight When you hear this lullaby
May the wind that blows from haunted graves Never bring you misery
May the angels bright Watch you tonight And keep you while you sleep
May the angels bright Watch you tonight And keep you while you sleep
May the angels bright Watch you tonight And keep you while you sleep
May the angels bright Watch you tonight And keep you while you sleep
May the angels bright Watch you tonight And keep you while you sleep
