Midnight Lullaby
Larry Dittberner © 1991
On a Thursday, in the evening
I am sitting in my kitchen.
In the evening in the kitchen
I am thinking of my children.
Ch: And peace, we want peace.
Oh peace, hope for peace.
Yes, peace, work for peace.
Live in peace.
It’s so easy to get greedy.
To want more and more
That’s how it seems.
‘Cause letting go isn’t easy.
How can we without a dream? (Ch.)
Many people the world over
Live simply day by day.
And we can, I do believe it.
It’s a choice that we all can make. (Ch.)
On a Thursday in the evening
I am sitting in my kitchen.
Guitar singing, me I’m wishing.
Sending love out to my children.
In their beds, tucked in and dreaming.
Curled up tight, gently breathing.
In the midnight, children sleeping.
And their angels watch are keeping.
In the midnight, children sleeping.
And their angels watch are keeping.
