Baby Close Your Eyes
Celine Dion · Miracle
Behind the hill
Everything is calm
Everything is still
So baby close your eyes
And rest your weary mind
Let me hold you close I'll sing you this lullaby
Let your worries go
You fall asleep
Think of nothing more
Memories will keep
Your dreams will turn to gold
And you will waken fine
Then you'll hold a smile all day from this lullaby
Maybe somewhere in the silence
You will wake and you're alone
Just call out and I'll be there
Even when I'm gone
Each day will end
So I'll say 'goodnight'
'Til we meet again
Now baby close your eyes
And rest your weary mind
I'll let you know the joy you bring
You this lullaby
