From the recording As You Believed
Lyrics
This is not a lullaby; you won’t be soothed to sleepYour sobs a gentle melody, but I will let you weepYour perfect rhythm all inside is all the time we’ll keepAnd I won’t sing, I’ll only breathe your song into me deep.And who knows all you’re hearing? I can’t guess…The harmony too beautiful, god, your distressIf I could stop the stream of sounds that come out wrongYou could fill the air with your pure song.But this is not a lullaby; you won’t be soothed to sleepYou won’t be fooled, you won’t be told, the mystery’s too deepYour every cry is music now, if I have ears to hearI’ll listen to your breath’s song Only sleep a little, dear.
