Who knows the reason why I sing this lullaby?
Who, who, who?
The owls are flying, you'll hear them all crying
Through the trees and the curtains as they hurry on home
With my feet on a limb and my eyes sad and lonely
I ask who, who, who?
Who will talk to me? Who will answer me?
Who knows why I say who?
Who knows the reason why? Who can tell me why?
Who, who, who?
With your head on your pillow while dreams round you billow
And shadows are yawning upon your wall
You're all off in slumber while I sit and wonder
Who, who, who?
Who knows the reason why I sing this lullaby?
Who, who, who?
Who knows the reason why I sing this lullaby?
Who, who, who?
