Sing me a lullaby
one that I know.
Carry me softly
down this road.
Don't tell where we're going
don't tell me why.
Just sing me to sleep
sing a lullaby.

I got inspired by this wondering if my mom ever sang me a lullaby.

This is fun and short. I like it! It flows perfectly off the tongue. You could make it slightly longer to add emphasis. Pretty good!

Life is a maybe. Death is for sure. Sin is the cause. Christ is the cure. :) <br /> <br /> Love is the breath of God, and prayer is the melody that makes it sing. <br /> <br /> If you cant annoy someone, there&#039;s no point in writing.<br /> <br /> Love is overrated, marry for money.
