Ryder: Fate has been cruel and order unkind How can I have sent you away?
The blame was my own; the punishment, yours The harmony's silent today But into the stillness I'll bring you a song And I will your company keep Till your tired eyes and my lullabies Have carried you softly to sleep Once did a kid who shone like the sun Look out on his kingdom and sigh
He smiled and said, "Surely, there is no one So lovely and so well beloved as I"
So great was his reign and so brilliant his glory That long was the shadow he cast Which fell dark upon the young brother he loved And grew only darker as days and nights passed Lullay moon prince, goodnight brother mine And rest now in moonlight's embrace Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth Through cloud, and through sky, and through space Carry the peace and the coolness of night And carry my sorrow in kind Alex , you're loved so much more than you know Forgive me for being so blind Soon did that kid take notice that others Did not give his brother his due And neither had he loved him as he deserved he watched as his brother's unhappiness grew But such is the way of the limelight, it sweetly Takes hold of the mind of its host And that foolish kid did nothing to stop The destruction of one who had needed him most Lullay moon prince, goodnight brother mine And rest now in moonlight's embrace Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth Through cloud, and through sky, and through space Carry the peace and the coolness of night And carry my sorrow in kind
Alex , you're loved so much more than you know May troubles be far from your mind And forgive me for being so blind The years now before us Fearful and unknown I never imagined I'd face them on my own May these thousand winters Swiftly pass, I pray I love you; I miss you All these miles away May all your dreams be sweet tonight Safe upon your bed of moonlight And know not of sadness, pain, or care And when I dream, I'll fly away and meet you there Sleep Sleep Sleep...
