Rooftop Lullaby - Jack L
Mother, is there something in the sky....
Something up there that they hide....
A jewel for me and you,
Apple trees with fallen fruit....
Oh daughter....
I don t know but I believe....
That its beauty s beyond words,
It s like a tune that I can t sing....
But I ve heard it sung by birds....
Chorus:
It s a rooftop lullaby....
Fallen from the sky....
Sends us to sleep tonight....
It s the apple in your eye....
Keeps you as sweet as pie...
dreaming through the night....
Oh father....
Won t you tell me if you know....
Where does half of the moon go,
When it s not up in the sky....
it disappears before my eyes....
Oh my son....
Why does morning break each day....
Why do people pass away,
It s the mystery in truth....
the innocence in youth....
Chorus:
Or a rooftop lullaby....
Fallen from the sky....
Sends us to sleep tonight....
It s the apple in your eye....
Keeps you as sweet as pie...
dreaming through the night....
Oh it s a rooftop lullaby....
Fallen from the sky....
Sends us to sleep tonight....
