Lullaby for the Lonely

there's a chill in the air tonight
and i wonder as you dare me
to dream and to hope for things unfathomed

the rain falls now
gently rapping against my pane
the wind whispering across the night sky

it is the lullaby for the lonely
those who wander in silence
searching for the warmth of a lover's embrace

the rain calls me to sleep now
the wind whispers an urge to rest my head,
my heart and my mind

so to bed i must go and to my dreams i will retreat
and i will wait for you there -
in the sweet lullaby of the lonely.
