Crown of Roses
by Dj Lewis
Lyrics
Verse 1
Sleep now, my little one
Moon on your silken cheek
Your tiny hand in mine
Soft as a downy leaf
The room is wrapped in gold
And hushes all around
I kiss your velvet brow
And hold your small sweet sound
Pre-Chorus
Close your eyes
Let the night fall slow
Safe with me
Where the white flowers grow
Chorus
Rias, my rose, my pearl
Dream on, baby girl (baby girl)
Rias, my rose, my pearl
I will guard your world
Dream, dream, little star (little star)
Dream where the soft winds are
Rias, my rose, my pearl
Sleep on, baby girl
Verse 2
I’ll tuck the day away
Beside your cradle’s lace
The silver teacups fade
Out in the other place
No worry knows your name
No storm may cross this door
I’ll sing you through the dark
And keep you safe for more
Pre-Chorus
Close your eyes
Let the night fall slow
Safe with me
Where the white flowers grow
Chorus
Rias, my rose, my pearl
Dream on, baby girl (baby girl)
Rias, my rose, my pearl
I will guard your world
Dream, dream, little star (little star)
Dream where the soft winds are
Rias, my rose, my pearl
Sleep on, baby girl
Bridge
If dawn should come too soon
I’ll trade it for more night
One song, then one more song
Until your breath is light
Final Chorus
Rias, my rose, my pearl
Dream on, baby girl (baby girl)
Rias, my rose, my pearl
I will guard your world
Dream, dream, little star (little star)
Dream where the soft winds are
Rias, my rose, my pearl
Sleep on, baby girl
