When you're so lonely lying in bed
Night's closed it's eyes but you can't rest your head
Everyone's sleeping all through the house

You wish you could dream but forgot to somehow
Sing this lullaby to yourself
Sing this lullaby to yourself

And if you are waiting, waiting for me
Know I'll be home soon darling I guarantee
I'll be home Sunday just in one week

Dry up your tears if you start to weep
And sing this lullaby to yourself
Sing this lullaby to yourself

Lullaby, I'm not nearby
Sing this lullaby to yourself
Don't you cry, no don't you cry

Sing this lullaby to yourself
Cause when I arrive dear it won't be that long
No it won't seem like anytime that I've been gone

It ain't the first time it won't be the last
Won't you remember these words to help the time pass?
So when you're so lonely lying in bed

Night's closed it's eyes but you can't rest your head
Everyone's sleeping all through the house
You wish you could dream but forgot to somehow

Sing this lullaby to yourself
Sing this lullaby to yourself
Sing this lullaby, sing this lullaby

Sing this lullaby to yourself
