Listen to the song he sings
Can't you see his music brings her
Crystal sleep

 
As her heavy eyelids fall
He's taking her to where the dolls

Rule the world
 
And in that land of make believe

Is where he'll leave her sleeping
Softly warm
In a crystal lullaby

 
He's weaving her a paper castle
Where dancing clowns with tassels made of fur

Welcome her into their world
That lives inside the dreams
Of every little girl

 
She's guarded by a brave tin soldier
Sitting on her shoulder

Taken there
In a crystal lullaby
 

Sometimes when I listen to
The velvet song that fills the summer afternoon
Something deep within me sighs

And wishes for the peaceful skies
Of long ago
 

(*) That wrapped my cares
In silver air
And carried them away

Leaving me ...
And a crystal lullaby
