lay down now in slumber mama s boy is torn asunder all the fields have gone grey all the leaves are gone brown let me tell you a story lay down i know you re weary while the star s in the sky while the moon s on the rise lay down and don t you wake til morning close your eyes and helpless through the night lay down and dream of love and glory this is a lover s lullaby once was a magician fair he was and handsome and he brought to the table all the fool s gold and wine well he promised us three favors said he was the savior we drank all his glory and we borrowed all his time lay down and don t you wake til mornin close your eyes and helpless through the night lay down and dream of love and glory this is a lover s lulla bye my love sleep tight my love softly fade away the moon was made of old green cheese to keep the night away softly now close your eyes lightly will you fade the moon was made for wakeful boys to keep the night away  lay down and don t wake til mornin close your eyes all through the night lay down in all your glory this is a lullaby lay down and don t wake til mornin close your eyes all through the night lay down in all your glory this is a lullaby this is a lullaby
