This is not a lullaby, One that makes you close your eyes Here's a song that will not try To hold you in my arms This is not a true love song, One that lifts your heart along Because you know it's being sung To hold you in my arms The rain it falls Right outside your door And you know if you call I'll be there, I'll be there Whatever you call me for This is just a quiet tune, To bring the light into your room When I'm not right in front of you To hold you in my arms This is not a lullaby To keep the clouds out of the sky, To be sure you will not cry When I hold you in my arms I'm gonna hold you in my arms
