Do you hear the wind a howling?
I saved my lonely porcelain doll
Do you hear the panther prowling
Wherever he wants
I can't give no more, I can't give no more
Just rocking to a lullaby
Dreams I thought would never pass me by
Is nothing more and nothin' less
Than a search for somethin' effortless
And when we find it in the open air
And when we breathe it in a strangers dare
It's nothing more and nothin' less
Than a search for somethin' effortless
Oh the cries are growing louder
Do they hear
Only when it's tuning and it's already tuning
We're just rocking to a lullaby
Dreams I thought would never pass us by
It's nothing more and nothing less
Than a search for something effortless
And when we find it in the open air
And when we breathe it in a strangers dare
It's nothing more and nothing less
Than a search for something effortless
And I don't cry for myself and I don't cry
Don't cry for you, I cry for the life of another
Someone I hardly knew, a man I never knew
Just rocking to a lullaby
Dreams I thought would never pass us by
It's nothing more and nothing less
Than a search for something effortless
And when we find it in the open air
And when we breathe it in a strangers dare
It's nothing more and nothing less
Than a search for something effortless
