I&amp;apos;ve never really had the ability to write songs like that. So I guess my life has changed a lot.&amp;quot;\r\nThe lyrics for the song include: I can&amp;apos;t dream without you. When you close your eyes and go to sleep tonight, I&amp;apos;ll be right outside your door, dreams will come and they&amp;apos;ll take you away, let them bring you back to me. And tomorrow when you wake I&amp;apos;ll be next to you, the protection from the day, when the tears fall down your face like morning dew, I&amp;apos;ll be there to put a smile on your face, and I&amp;apos;ll say&amp;#x2026;\r\n\r\nLenny KravitzWhen little Zoe Kravitz was born in 1988 to Kravitz and his wife at the time Lisa Bonet, the rocker dad sat down and wrote &amp;quot;Zoe&amp;apos;s Lullaby,&amp;quot; which eventually became &amp;quot;Flowers For Zoe.&amp;quot; The song became a hit when it was rereleased in 1991.\r\nAmong the lyrics are: Flowers for Zoe/Love for Zoe/Angels and rainbows/All kinds of things you can call your own/Garden for Zoe/And oceans for Zoe/Jungle gym playgrounds/All kinds of things for you to explore.\r\nRelated Links\r\n20 Cute Celeb Daddy/Daughter Moments Caught on Film\r\nMommy&amp;apos;s Lil Helpers: Where Celebrity Moms Turn For Childcare Help\r\nJessica Simpson&amp;apos;s Fashionable Pregnancy Deconstructed\r\n10 Hilarious &amp;quot;So True&amp;quot; Moments on Up All Night"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
