Lullaby of the Leaves

Bernice Petkere, Joseph Young

Cradle me with southern skies and
Watch me with a million eyes
Oh, sing me to sleep
Lullaby of the leaves

Cover me with heaven's blue
And let me dream a dream or two
Oh, sing me to sleep
Lullaby of the leaves

I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
That pine melody caressing the shore
Familiar to me, I've heard it before
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

That south land don't I feel it in my soul
And don't I know I've reached my goal
Oh, sing me to sleep
Lullaby of the leaves

[Instrumental Solos]

I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
That pine melody caressing the shore
Familiar to me
I've heard it before
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

That south land don't I feel it in my soul
And don't I know I've reached my goal
Oh, sing me to sleep
Lullaby of the leaves

[Outro]
Lullaby of the leaves
Lullaby of the leaves
Lullaby of the leaves
Lullaby of the leaves
Lullaby of the leaves
Lullaby of the leaves
Lullaby of the leaves
Ooh, lullaby of leaves
