What are lullabies and goodbyes
but words sung and spoken?
What are words
but thoughts outwardly spun?
Thanks to lullabies and goodbyes,
now you’re set a spinning
Thanks to lullabies and goodbyes,
now your thoughts are a whirling
When come lullabies and goodbyes
but at the very end?
At this end where they have last reply;
and to your dreams, you’re sent
Dreams where lullabies and goodbyes are not
Dreams where thoughts cannot be outwardly caught
