Ben Folds Five Lullaby Lyrics

Lullaby Lyrics

Goodnight, goodnight, sweet baby
The world has more for you
Than it
seems
Goodnight, goodnight
Let the moonlight take the lid off your
dreams.

We took a small flight
In the middle of the night
From one
tiny place to another
And my parents, they remained
At the shack with
Lorraine
And my aunt and my grandpa and brother

We walked past the
tarmac
and borded the craft
The rain had me chilled to the bone
Just
the three of us
Took the flight that night
Uncle Richard, me and James
Earl Jones

And the pilot, he gave me a blanket
And the tall dark
man
Sang to me in deep, rich tones

Goodnight, goodnight, sweet
baby
The world has more for you
Than it seems
Goodnight,
goodnight
Let the moonlight take the lid off your dreams.
