Grade - Termites Hollow lyrics

Little girl was down by the waterside

The sun so hot and the roses so red where she lie

As little boys sit and watch as she twirls all around

Sunny smiles not a raincloud could bring that girl down

But now....

What's behind those big brown eyes

Do you dream at night

Without your lullaby

Little boy sits alone as he sings in the dark

Wondering if his own dreams had pulled them apart

He sings a song of tomorrow he never can see

Mostly sings of a lost little girl's memory

And Now...

As his dreams go flashing by

He begins to hear

A lonely lullaby

Well now

We used to sing

And we used to cry

Through everything

In our children's lullaby

Little girl on the street with nobody around

Has her head in the air dirty feet on the ground

She shuts her eyes and she wonders is this a mistake

Now she's gone from the warmth of her little boy days

And still...

She believes that she'll get by

On her own without

Her little boy's lullaby

Little boy prays to God to answer his song

To hold her hand when everyone else's are gone

Time goes by and the wounds slowly turn into scars

So he makes his final wish on the midnight stars

And he screams...

Little girl won't you hear my cry

Won't you come back home

To your lover's lullaby

Little girl down by the waterside

Goodbye
