Distant Melody

Once upon a time and long ago
I heard someone singing soft and low
Now when day is done and night is near
I recall this song I used to hear:

My child, my very own, don't be afraid, you're not alone
Sleep until the dawn, for all is well

Long ago this song was sung to me
Now it's just a distant melody
Somewhere in the past I used to know
Once upon a time and long ago.
