At the turning of another moon Comes time to end this day And only so many have to pass As I am gone away So I sing you now this lullaby Though it is bittersweet For we have to part when we close our eyes But every morning meet These words fall down upon this page I never do get to sleep But to be so far away from you I lay my head and weep I know this night will be over soon There's another day in sight Though darkness falls on empty sheets Only you bring in the light I will never be the perfect wife I don't even know what that is But I will be here and he'll always know That my heart is his So count down the days And draw the curtains back Pour the wine and say That we'll love as much as we both can do Until our dying day
