Lyrics

13. The Last Lullaby



The golden light shines above

As we all gather here with love

And as our voices gently bend

You are on your way back home again



The leaves are thick upon the ground

Where you now walk without a sound

The birch tree bows as you go by

As we sing to you this last lullaby



bridge

Your laughter will ripple down the rivers to the bays

Your smile will spread through all our days

We’ll be real good to ourselves and won’t cry

While we sing to you this last lullaby



The woods are rich and dark and green

As pure and sweet as you’ve ever seen

She takes your hand and the meadow sighs

As she brings you home with this last lullaby

She takes your hand and the meadow sighs

And she brings you home with this last lullaby
