My Heartbeat a Lullaby

Lie your head upon my heart
Let its beating be a lullaby
To comfort and bring sleep

Peace wooed by heartstrings
Come carry my love to dreamland
Daylight’s candle snuffed by the moon

Eyelashes flutter with feathery kiss
Slumber comes with sweet sigh
My heart song playing until morning
