Sleepsong Lyrics

Lay down your head and I'll sing you a lullaby
Back to the years of loo-li lai-lay
And I'll sing you to sleep and I'll sing you tomorrow
Bless you with love for the road that you go

May you sail fair to the far fields of fortune
With diamonds and pearls at your head and you feet
And may you need never to banish missfortune
May you find kindness in all that you need

[Chorus]
May there always be angels to watch over you
To guide you each step of the way
To guard you and keep you safe from all harm
Loo-li, loo-li lai-lay

May you bring love and may you bring happiness
Be loved in return till the end of your days
Now, fall of to sleep, I'm not meaning to keep you
I'll just sit for a while and sing loo-li lai-lay

[Chorus]
May there always be angels to watch over you
To guide you each step of the way
To guard you and keep you safe from all harm
Loo-li, loo-li lai-lay
Loo-li, loo-li lai-lay
