Lullaby

At night, when I ought to be sleepin'
That's when you start creepin'
Into my memory
And tears, they keep my eyes from closin'
Kept my heart locked and frozen
Until you melted me

So say, won't you be my lullaby?
Oh, baby, won't you be my man?
And say, tell me that I shouldn't cry
Oh, tell me you will understand

Out in the thick of the hot night
Under these city street lights
I'm unraveling
I long for the dawn to start breakin'
She knows my heart is achin'
And she'll deliver to me

So say, won't you be my lullaby?
Oh, baby, won't you be my man?
And say, tell me that I shouldn't cry
Oh, tell me you will understand

At night, when I ought to be sleepin'
That's when you start creepin'
Into my memory
