Transatlantic Lullaby
Composer(s): Geoff Wright - Robert McDermott
Performer(s): Adelaide Hall
and multiple other artists
New Yorks skyscrapers are sleeping
Dawn comes creeping on
Street lamps are shining more clearly
Night has nearly gone
Papa and mama both are yawning now
All their goodnights will soon be said
It wont be long until the morning now
And time to go to bed
Soft Manhattan evenings fall
A velvet dust envelops all
On Hudson River, distant tugboats cry
Ship to ship and shore to shore
The waters make a shining floor
And hum a transatlantic lullaby
The sky is silky dark, its cool in Central Park
The traffic cars all clanging past
A busy day is done, the lights fade one by one
And Broadway goes to bed at last
Tomorrow seems a distant beam
And still the rocky waters gleam
And hum a sleepy transatlantic lullaby
The sky is silky dark, its cool in Central Park
The charley cars all clanging past
A busy day is done, the lights fade one by one
And Broadway goes to bed at last
Tomorrow seems a distant beam
And still the rocky waters gleam
And hum a sleepy transatlantic lullaby
