lyrics

 Every night I sit and sing, until you go to sleep
echoing days gone past, feelings buried deep
sometimes you lie and watch me
at other times you cry
I think of all the other nights I sang a sad little lullaby

Don’t be sad little baby, there’s no need to feel blue
Let’s sing the blues for daddy and a lullaby for you

You watch my fingers on the strings as tears run down your face
I sang these songs some years ago, for others in your place
Outside in the darkness old dogs howl and car doors slam
When you grow up I hope you will remember who I am

Don’t be sad little baby, there’s no need to feel blue
Let’s sing the blues for daddy and a lullaby for you

Your little fingers hold on tight and reach out for my hand
we come and go and people change who knows what has been planned
That human touch, skin to skin. and flesh upon the bone
 can make us both feel better just to know we’re not alone

Don’t be sad little baby, there’s no need to feel blue
Let’s sing the blues for daddy and a lullaby for you

Don’t be sad little baby, though you don’t know what that means
While daddy sings a blue song go to sleep and dream sweet dreams
