The Glenn Miller Orchestra — Melancholy Lullaby lyrics

Lyrics

Melancholy lullaby
Coming from a trouble sky
Ringing through the clinging vine
Right into this heart of mine
Melancholy lullaby
Listen to the nightwind sigh
How can I expect to sleep
When I lay me down to weep?
Your love has cooled
From flame to ice
And I’ve been fooled
Into a fool’s paradise…
Hear the music of the rain
Beating on my window pane
Wish that I could say goodbye
To my melancholy lullaby…
