Softly blows over Lullaby Bay,
It fills the sails of boats that are waiting,
Waiting to sail your worries away.
It isn't far to Hushabye Mountain,
And your boat waits down by the quay.
The winds of night sdo softly are sighing,
So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain,
Wave goodbye to cares of the day,
And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain
Sail far away from Lullaby Bay.
So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain,
Wave goodbye to cares of the day,
And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain
Sail far away from Lullaby Bay.

A gentle breeze from Hushabye Mountain
A calming gust of wind is blowing from Hushabye Mountain
Softly blows over Lullaby Bay,
The breeze gently sweeps over Lullaby Bay
It fills the sails of boats that are waiting,
The wind fills the sails of boats that are eagerly waiting
Waiting to sail your worries away.
The boats are ready to take away all your troubles

Hushabye Mountain is not very far away
And your boat waits down by the quay.
Your boat is waiting at the quay
The winds of night so softly are sighing,
The gentle winds of the night are silently sighing
Soon they will fly your troubles to sea.
They will soon take your worries far away to the sea

Close your eyes while you are on Hushabye Mountain
Wave goodbye to cares of the day,
Say farewell to all the worries of the day

Observe your boat from the vantage point of Hushabye Mountain
Sail far away from Lullaby Bay.
Sail far away to distance yourself from Lullaby Bay

My grandpa died a while ago and I dropped to my knees and cried for hours. Later that night my mom sat by bedside and sang this song to me.. Every time I hear this It makes me feel safe and calm

I realize you posted this comment several years ago, but I hope you've found some peace. To say that losing a loved one is hard is a serious understatement. It's the kind of heartbreak that never heals, only dulls with time. I don't know your beliefs in life after death, but if nothing else, you can always hold onto the knowledge of your grandfather's love for you.

Just found this song, and it gives me so much nostalgia from when my parents would sing me to sleep.
