Hi everyone, this is a song I wrote and sang based on the story of Do You Remember My Lullaby, about a young single mother waiting for her son to come home on Christmas night. Sorry for the accent, hopefully it's somewhat understandable with the lyrics sheet!

Lyrics:
Snow falls through the night sky
Descend upon a humble home
Inside its walls sits a silent girl
Alongside lies an old wooden box
And so she stares
And so she sighs
And so she waits
She told herself she will be strong somehow
She told herself she is just wrong again
Snow falls from the rooftops
She eagerly glances at the door
The room dims as a candle dies
Still lit enough to see her face
She opens the box and the music rings
She frowns and hums along
And still she stares
And still she sighs
And still she waits
Remembering to wish upon tonight
Remembering that only song he loved
She gracefully stood at the window
She held her hands up to the sky
And so she sang
Her lullaby
Into the night
***
And so she waits
And so she waits
And so she waits
She told her self she'd wait 'til dawn arises
She told her self it won't be long from now
She told her self that she is certain
She told her self that she has faith
Oooooooo
Oooooooo, ooh
Oooooooh
She told herself that she is strong
But still she waits
And still she waits
And still she waits..
