A mother's wish

Magic forest

In a forest dark and deep

where Unicorns and Dragons sleep,

I saw a maiden resting beneath a tree.

Her sea blue eyes and golden hair

she's beautiful just resting there

I wish some day she'd rest with me.

~~~~~~~

A Dragon said with a wink of an eye

Sing the little girl a lullaby

and soon you'll find her resting by your side

sing the little girl a lullaby.

~~~~~~~~

A Unicorn with silk white fur

asked me if my heart was sure

I sang to him my song of love inside

~~~~~~~~

That's the day I found the girl

who brought life to this magic world

forever more to wander through this dream

Where unicorns and dragons play

and rainbows fill our everyday

and happiness is all that it seems.

~~~~~~~~

Now in that forest dark and deep

where Unicorns and Dragons sleep

I found a maiden resting beneath a tree

her sea blue eyes and golden hair

She is beautiful just resting here

My little daughter Aubrey rests with me

~~~~~~~

The dragon said with a wink of an eye

sing the little girl a lullaby

soon I found her resting by my side

I sang the little girl a lullaby

    Nice job! So hey- funny question: Are you by any chance Jewish? I happen to have the same surname as you and I am, so I was just wondering...
