Lullaby - Mandolin Orange

Who heard the tree that fell on me

Who heard my cries there beneath it

With no one around, do we make a sound

Will no one else hear of our secret

I have pushed and I’ve pulled until I’ve turned blue

Tried counting sheep and made it to two

I have gazed at the stars and the man in the moon

Tried thinking of anything but you

Oh me, in this world of sorrow

Missing your world of love

May I leave this world of sorrow

For a world made just for us

Just for us

I count the hours as they pass me by

And I count up all that I’ve done

Every echoed sound that haunts me now

As I lie here and wait out the sun

And if daybreak doesn’t make it

I’m not sure how I’ll take it

For I’d surely hate to break it off so soon

But there’s no one around to hear all of this sound

Myself and these trees have been making

Oh me in this world of sorrow

Missing your world of love

May I leave this world of sorrow

For a world made just for us

Just for us
