Lyrics
PLANETS AND STARS (a Lullabye)
words & music by Stephanie Bennett, April 1996
As I tuck you in, I gaze at the sky
growing dark, now the day is complete.
And the wind and I will sing lullabye;
something gentle and lovely and sweet.
I?ll turn out the light and sing you to sleep
with a song of the planets and stars.
And I pray your rest is peaceful and deep
as you dream of the wonders afar.
Mercury, Venus, our Earth, and Mars;
Jupiter, Saturn with rings;
Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto,
?round our bright sun whirling.
I have watched as people walked on the moon;
you may grow up to travel to Mars.
Then, from far away, remember the tune
that I sang of the planets and stars.
Mercury, Venus, our Earth, and Mars;
Jupiter, Saturn with rings;
Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto,
?round our bright sun whirling.
I do not know what your future will bring;
we will see as the years hurry by.
But right here and now, I?ll whisper one thing
that I know is true: that my love for you
is as vast as the infinite sky.
