And now the day is over Just close your lovely eyes In my loving arms Till morning sun arise And now the day is over And stars caress the sky I'll lay you gently down And sing this lullaby And now the day is over And stars caress the sky I'll lay you gently down And sing this lullaby And through the silent night Just close your eyes And feel my loving breath And hear my quiet sighs Drift Away Drift Away Drift Away Into the night For I am a poet My words complete the tune I wrote this song one night Beneath a harvest moon And if you hold my hand I'll sing to you As day turns into night I'll love you too Drift Away Drift Away Just drift Away Into the night Drift Away Drift Away Just drift away Into the night Just drift away Just drift away Just drift away Just drift away Just drift away Just drift away Just drift away Just drift away
