Lyrics
Day is done, gone the sun
From the lakes, from the hills, from the sky
I once asked God out loud why he sent you to me
But you overheard me and asked me, “why ask why?”
Day is done, gone the sun
But the stars provide me with just enough light to see
See the lake, see the hill
The sky’s amazing, don’t you wanna come stargazing with me?
I don’t know what the band is playing
But it can’t be as beautiful as you singing to me
I don’t know what the band is playing
So let me come over and sing you to sleep
All is well, safely rest
‘Cause I’m running as fast as I can to get home to you
God is nigh behind my eyes
And he’s filling the path to you with heavenly light
All is well, safely rest
Can’t you hear me humming a lullaby for you under my breath?
So lay your head on my chest
For the sun has set in the west
I don’t know what the band is playing
But it can’t be as beautiful as you singing to me
I don’t know what the band is playing
So let me come over and sing you to sleep
I don’t know what the band is playing
But it can’t be as beautiful as you singing to me
I don’t know what the band is playing
So just let me come over and sing you to sleep
