It's actually raining now, but I caught up on lots of sleep last night and Vienna Teng's amazingly sweet voice was going through my head...

Lullaby For A Stormy Night
by Vienna Teng

Little child, be not afraid
The rain pounds harsh against the glass
Like a unwanted stranger
There is no danger
I am here tonight

Little child, be not afraid
The thunder explodes and lightning flash
Illuminates
Your tear-stained face
I am here tonight

And someday you'll know
That nature is so
The same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
On forests and sand
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning

Little child, be not afraid
Though storm clouds mask your beloved moon
And its candlelight beams
Still keep pleasant dreams
I am here tonight

Little child, be not afraid
Though wind makes creatures of our trees
And their branches to hands
They're not real, understand
And I am here tonight

And someday you'll know
That nature is so
The same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
On forests and sand
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning

For you know once even I was a...

...Little child, and I was afraid
But a gentle someone always came
To dry all my tears
Trade sweet sleep for fears
And to give a kiss goodnight

Well now I am grown
And these years have shown
That rain's a part of how life goes
But it's dark and it's late
So I'll hold you and wait
Till your frightened eyes do close

And I hope that you know
That nature is so
The same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
On forests and sand
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning

Everything's fine in the morning
The rain'll be gone in the morning
But I'll still be here in the morning
