Lullaby of the Waves

Listening to the sound of waves

I’m watching you sleep tonight

Beyond your softly tangled hair

A gentle dream is drifting by

Outside the window, countless stars

Are shining down upon the sea

If this silence could last forever

I wouldn’t need the morning light

The waves roll in and fade away

In rhythm with your quiet breath

The words I never learned to say

Are carried softly by the night wind

The sound of waves is a lullaby

Wrapping you in a gentle song

Starlight falling from the sky

Tonight, I just wanna keep you safe

The sound of waves is a lullaby

Slowly setting my heart free

Until the moment you open your eyes

I’ll stay right here and watch you dream

Moonlight through the curtain falls

Softly shining on your face

Your fingers move so quietly

I gently place my hand on yours

Even the distant city lights

Are melting into the sea tonight

It feels like we’re the only two

As silent hours drift on by

If a lonely dream should find you

Let the waves carry it away

I’ll leave a wish among the stars

For a brighter tomorrow day

The sound of waves is a lullaby

Wrapping you in a gentle song

Held beneath a million stars

We’ll sail together through the night

The sound of waves is a lullaby

Singing everything I feel

And when you finally open your eyes

Let your first smile be for me

Listening to the sound of waves

I’m watching you sleep tonight

Even when the stars fade into dawn

This love will never fall asleep
