God gave me a gift,
a love for all time.
An angel from Heaven,
to have as all mine.
It was blessed from above,
and sealed with a ring,
but a love thats not real,
 it ain't worth a thing.

So rockabye baby,
out of my life,
out of my home,
no more my wife.
When those vows you broke,
all trust then did fall,
like teardrops from Heaven,
when there's no love at all.

You promised me darlin,
that you could be true.
Maybe I was a fool,
but I believed in you.
I fell for your blue eyes,
and ignored other things,
because your halo was tin,
and you didn't have wings.

So rockabye baby,
out of my soul.
I don't know where you'll wander,
but I know I can't go.
If I cross the street now,
I look both ways.
You won't run me over now,
At least that's what I pray.

There's a book there in Heaven,
reserving our room,
on a street paved with gold,
where the satin sheets bloom.
Our love life forever,
ended a little too soon.
I hope they have white out,
or to Hell you are doomed

So rockabye baby,
out of my heart.
Always and forever,
suddenly broken apart.
Golden bonds now are shattered,
like stained glass, on the ground,
like that fairy tale scrambled egg man,
the kings horse men can't be found.

Here in this house now,
it don't feel much like home,
The antelopes don't play here,
and lonely hearts are too low to roam.
That rock candy mountain,
in your eyes I had found,
is in a barn full of rubble now,
where heart aches abound.

So rockabye baby,
out of my home.
Ain't nothing much left here,
but a good life gone wrong.
I've still got the pictures,
something old something new,
and some tears full of memories,
that's just making me blue
