A Lot of Lullabys

I’ve been listening to a Lullaby CD over and over and over for the past 7 months. Surprisingly, I’m not sick of it. In fact, there are a couple songs that have stuck with me. Well, the melodies all stick with me, but there are a couple that have strong messages.

Like these lines from “When you Wish Upon a Star”:

If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do

And from “Simple Gifts”:

‘Tis the gift to be happy, ’tis the gift to be true,

‘Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,

And when we find ourselves in the place just right,

‘Twill be in the valley of love and delight.

When true simplicity is gain’d,

To bow and to bend we shan’t be asham’d,

To turn, turn will be our delight,

Till by turning, turning we come round right.

Nice, don’t you think?
