Lullaby

She has straw blonde hair that blows in the breeze.
And bright blue eyes deep as the sea.
When she cries they turn an icy green,
He kisses her salty tears.

He wants to tell her how he feels
But he's scared of what she'll say.
So he sings her a lullaby and closes his heart.
She dies today.

She had a chiming voice, a hypnotizing stare.
Boys would chase after her with a flick of her hair.
When she went, she went out with a bang.
As they buried her he sang:

I wanted to tell you how I feel
But I was scared of what you'd say.
So I sang you a lullaby and closed my heart.
I died that day.

When he gets home he sings a love song to her.
His watery eyes paint a tragic picture.
As he raises the gun, her voice speaks to him.
I love you too,
Don't give up, life's not through.

She had straw blonde hair that blew in the breeze.
And bright blue eyes deep as the sea.
When she cried they turned an icy green,
He kissed her salty tears.

He wanted to tell her how he feels
But he was scared of what she'd say.
Now he sings himself to sleep with a broken heart
Since she died that day.
Oh, they died today.
