Lullaby in Blue Songtext

von Bette Midler

I know that I'm no saint.
My head is in the clouds.
They called you a mistake,
But I still,
I still say your name out loud.

Chorus 1
They called me a stupid girl,
Just like my mom,
Too many men passed through my arms.
At seventeen I looked into your eyes,
Knew I could never comfort your cries.
Ev'ry april still reminds me of you,
The child I never knew,
My lullaby in blue.

It all goes by so fast.
How lovely you must be?
Why you've reached the age at last,
That I was whan your daddy lived with me.

Chorus 2
How I wish we could meet somewhere,
Talk it through.
There is so much I would say to you.
There are others,
I'm not alone,
A younger brother you've never known
And a baby girl who so reminds me of you,
The child I never knew,
My lullaby in blue.

As the years go by,
Try not to think of us sadly.
Believe it if you can,
I want to see you so badly on your birthday.
Mamy's thinking of you,
The child I never knew,
My lullaby in blue.
My lullaby in blue.
