 Hush Now
|
 I sit beside you and hold your head for a sip of water
The tubes and wires are gone and they rolled the
machines away yesterday
You clutch the white sheet in your hand
Your eyes ever widening to navigate another land
Chorus
Hush now, let it go
Like a leaf on the water
Rest now, let it go
Just open your hand
And our children have all said their goodbyes
Little Julie has drawn a picture of angels teaching
you to fly
"Not now!" you cry, "when there's so much left to do."
"Raise the children, build a house in the country,
sail across the sea and grow old with you."
Chorus
Everything's been taken care of
Nothing left for you to do my love
Yes, I paid the bills to day, and the plumber came to
fix the drain
We knew this day would come
One would go before the other one
I'm singing this lullaby for your journey to the other
side
Chorus
He lai lei lai lei, he lai lei lai lei, oh lai lei ai
lei, leie, leie (3X)
Hush now, let it go
Like a leaf on the water
back
