hey little cowboy, i would lasso the moon for you


Lasso the Moon Written for By Billy Simon and Lowell Alexander (for Art Garfunkle)

If I were a carpenter

I'd build a world of love

Where we would always be together

If I were the captain
Of
 a ship of happiness

I'd sail away with you forever

Close your eyes

And know you are safe with me
If I had a lariat

Made of dreams come true

I would lasso the moon for you

If I were a rocketeer

I'd scale the universe

To bring your heart a star each 
morning

If I were an angel 
In 
Heaven's Holy host

I'd sing to you a verse of glory

Close your eyes

And know you are safe with me
If I had a lariat

Made of dreams come true

I would lasso the moon for you.

  3. What a beautiful song! I wish I could come up with something like that. I did manage to change a totally guilt-ridden "lullaby" that my mom used to sing to me into a child friendly version-- the original song talks about a mother's love being a blessing and you'll miss her when she's gone (there's that Catholic guilt)... and I changed it to "a baby's love is a blessing" and "I'll love you more each day". Seemed a little more appropriate :)

  7. Billy Simon & Lowell Alexander? I don't know them, but maybe I should. I love the sweet picture and little boots. My two-year-old loves to run in a diaper and her boots too!
