SLEEP by RAVI 1) sleep little baby sleep, as we drift into the night, your mother, and your father's love will feed your restfull sleep with sweet__and calming dreams singing lullabys a plenty, by a choir of leprechauns from the land across the sea 2) your mother is an angel and the star in your daily show, brightens up this life, like-the-lights on clear winter nights love is unconditional with you and me, and your the luckiest child I ever chanced to meet 3) cry little baby cry as we drift into the day, while your mother's sleeping we'll slip away to play to search for lions in the woods, chasing butterflies with our eyes, till its time to go back home where your mother lies, slumbering 4) play little baby play, but the time is moving on, your mother's breast is waiting, and your daddy's leaving home to go out now into the world, and find some satisfying work, returning with the kisses and the riches we deserve 5) laugh little baby laugh, while I take a photograph, to carry in my hand while in strange and foreign lands when i return I'll sing you songs I learned when I was travelling, and here is one that you can keep.....so sleep little baby sleep so sleep little baby sleep , so sleep little baby sleep

SONGS OF LOVE 03:24
lyrics

SONGS OF LOVE by RAVI 1) listening to the winds of silence, pure expression earthly sounds in the lonely night of longing, what was lost can now be found * when the dawn breaks and the heart aches feelings they will come and go, like poetry falling on the page you can choose to see this life's charade, but have you heard these songs, of love 2) two sides to a simple story, two hearts with their tales to tell in a walled and fragrant garden, you throw a coin into a well * there's a songbird, softly singing and on the stage the game is played, different characters with ornate masks spirits of the future's past, and have you heard these songs, of love M8) and when the day is done, and all the songs are sung, was it all a dream, or reality 3) songs of love and songs of silence, ritual and circumstance sometimes we all need some guidance, sometimes just a loving hand we make our plans so god can laugh, we are her tears of pain and joy, that rain onto this blessed land, creating rivers, lakes and seas within these words there is a wish, find the kiss within the song here to give.....and to help, an opening so hearts can melt, and have you heard these songs, have you heard these songs, of love
