lirik lagu lullaby for a doll – the wainwright sisters
when i was small i had dolls
some could walk
some could talk
some could cry
others would wet when i’d lie ’em down
and like a mother i’d rock them to sleep with some old melody
one i had learned at my mother’s knee
and their tiny eyes would close on a hinge
not to open till i sat ’em up straight
with just one sad cry
they’d lie there * till i decided
the time had come to play
then one day i sang my song
sang it for the last time
left them therе to lie forever in thе dark
by and by i went to school
to learn of life and all it’s mysteries
found its pleasures after sundown in the park
where at first i walked alone
soon walked with others
till the one to hold my hand had that touch to set me off
i got married and had children
a house and furniture
a dentist, a doctor * to monitor each cough
then one day i called my daughter
i called her by her little name
i found her playing house in the dining room
the table was her roof
and books were her play*chairs
every doll was dressed and working
some with dustpans and some with brooms
and then i got down beside her
to help make her little home
my fingers fumbled with the snaps
i couldn’t hold barbie’s comb
then it cl!cked and i remembered
when i was small i had dolls
some could walk
some could talk
some could cry
others would wet when i’d lie ’em down
and like a mother i’d rock them to sleep with some old melody
one i had learned at my mother’s knee
but you * you’re like no doll
you don’t fall asleep after i’ve kissed you goodnight
and unlike your doll you won’t stay small
you’ll grow and grow, too soon, to take flight
