Lullaby in Blue - Bette Midler

I know that I’m no saint

My head is in the clouds

They called you a mistake

But I still say your name out loud

They called me a stupid girl

Just like my mom

Too many men passed through my arms

At seventeen I looked into your eyes

Knew I could never comfort your cries

Every April still reminds me of you

The child I never knew

My lullaby in blue

It all goes by so fast

How lovely you must be

Why you’ve reached the age at last

That I was when your daddy lived with me

How I wish we could meet somewhere

Talk it through

There is so much I would say to you

There are others, I’m not alone

A younger brother you’ve never known

And a baby girl who so reminds me of you

The child I never knew

My lullaby in blue

As the years go by

Try not to think of us sadly

Believe it if you can

I want to see you so badly

On your birthday, Mama’s thinking of you

The child I never knew

My lullaby in blue

My lullaby in blue

My lullaby
