Lullaby of the Week goes to:

“If only, if only, the woodpecker sighs, / The bark on the tree was as soft as the skies. / The wolf waits below, hungry and lonely, / And cries to the moon, / if only, if only.”

My favorite Brian Eno Lulaby

Put a straw under baby,
Your good deed for the day
Put a straw under baby,
Keep the splinters away.

Let the corridors echo,
As the dark places grow
Hear Superior's footsteps
On the landing below.

There's a place in the orchard
Where no-one dare go
The last one who went there
Turned into a crow.

Turned into a crow, crow,
Turned into a crow
The last one who went there
Turned into a crow.

There's a brain in the table,
There's a heart in the chair
And they all live in Jesus,
It's a family affair.
