French Lullaby

French Lullaby                                     April 13, 2005

I traverse across the Atlantic with you, my darling,
To France, to my chateau in the countryside.
There, we may have the finest champagne,
Symbolizing all we hold dear together,
And drink the nights away 'til we're silly,
And wake up,with you confined in my arms.
Thus, we here have the beginnings
Of a sweet French lullaby.

Later, I'll sit down at this old antique piano,
Play you a tune to seduce you wild.
Memories of times past mingle with the present,
And we revel in the sweet sounds of notes,
Notes just resonating through the air.
We sing and sing and sing along
To this sweet French lullaby.

And it is to this sweet French lullaby
I give to you my love, Cherie.
It really shouldn't take too awfully long
To convey the message to you.
Darling, just remember one thing,
This one simple thing true:
I love you, my morning sunrise,
This lullaby is all about you.
