Venice - Middle Age Lullaby

Feels like everyone I know
That’s around my age
Finds themselves in a funny stage
In the middle of the night
They lie awake in their beds
But instead of counting blessings

They’re counting fears and regrets


What I’m trying to say here
To put you at ease
Is that we all
Could sure use some peace

I wish you quiet
I wish you hope
I wish you miles away from everything that scares you so
I know it sounds a bit strange
But I think that it’s time for a Middle Age Lullaby

These are the unkind years
Of losing so many
Of questioning dreams
If we still have any
Too old to be young, much too young to be old
Drifting towards the horizon
So sure and so cold What I’m trying to tell you
To put you at ease
Is that each and every one of us
Could sure use some peace

CHORUS

Here’s a song for all of us
Who could sure use some peace

CHORUS

I know it sounds a bit strange
But I think that it’s time for a Middle Age Lullaby
