If you wake to find you´re all alone
Call me up on the telephone, and I´ll say
"Come on ´round, kick up your feet"
I´ll check to see if your heart still beats, you can stay
I heard her laugh but she sounded blue
I said "you know my heart´s for you, it likes awake
Dreaming of its promised land
A gentle touch from your gentle hand" I would say.

So hush, little darling, don´t you cry
Hush, little darling, gonna make you mine

I know our love did rust away
But through that window came a better day
So don´t close the blinds
Cause you´re my light, you´re my emptiness
The pretty colours on that summer dress, babe
You´re all the things that fall from the sky
The sun, the rain, the moon, the light, babe
So come on down to this earthly being
And I´ll hold you close when you´re in need, babe

So hush, little darling, don´t you cry
Hush, little darling, gonna make you mine
Hush, little darling, don´t you cry
Hush, little darling, gonna make you mine
