Janet Devlin - Whisky Lullabies Lyrics
When I was a childThey'd ask me where it hurtAnd wipe the tears from my eyesSure embraces,Gentle forehead kissesMaking sure that I was alrightAs I grew older and the nights grew shorterI no longer cared where it hurtAll I hear is, Whisky LullabiesThere to cradle me to sleepAll I hear is, Whisky LullabiesThere to cradle me to sleepScars they heal in timeThe raw wounds on my mindThey aren't so easily fixedYou can't mend what isn't brokenKind words are rarely spokenIn time I will learn thisBut I grow olderAnd the nights grow shorterDrowning as I sink or swimAll I hear is, Whisky LullabiesThere to cradle me to sleepAll I hear is, Whisky LullabiesThere to cradle me to sleepSticks and stones they break me to the boneWords they cut they will always hurt mePlease be my saving GracePlease be my saving GraceHow to answer all my prayersPlease be my saving GraceAll I hear is, Whisky LullabiesThere to cradle me to sleepAnd all I hear is, Whisky LullabiesThere to cradle me to sleepSticks and stones they break me to the boneWords they cut, they will always hurt meSticks and stones they break me to the boneWords they cut, they will always hurt me
