The similarity of this song to Canon in D by Pachelbel was unintentional and was not realized until after I had recorded the vocals and most of the instrumentation.
Just me, a synth and a computer...
Story behind the song
Written June 26, 2006. Experts say that a song made familiar to a baby still in the womb will calm the baby when they hear it after they're born. This is a lullaby for my unborn daughter, Madelyn.
Lyrics
Rest your sleepy little head, my dear
I'll make sure you're safe tonight
Give me all your troubles and fears
I'll tuck them in my sleeve,
Take them with me when I leave
I promise
Go to sleep now
Go to sleep
My baby girl
Hush your crying
Close your eyes and
Go to sleep
You are safe here
In my arms
Close your sleepy little eyes, my dear
I'll be close if you should need
Give me all your bad dreams and tears
I'll shut them in the hall
They won't bother you at all
I promise
Go to sleep now
Go to sleep
My baby girl
Hush your crying
Close your eyes and
Go to sleep
You are safe here
In my arms
Go to sleep now
Go to sleep
My baby girl
Hush your crying
Close your eyes and
Go to sleep
You are loved here
In my arms
