(Verse 1) In the quiet of the evening, as the stars begin their flight, A melody is weaving in the heart of the gentle night. The moon is softly glowing, casting silver beams so bright, In the heart of the gentle night, in the heart of the gentle night. (Chorus) Gentle night, oh gentle night, cradle dreams in your soft light, Guide us to the land of sleep, where the dreams are sweet and deep. Gentle night, oh gentle night, hold us in your quiet might, In the heart of the gentle night, in the heart of the gentle night. (Verse 2) The world is softly sleeping, under blankets of twilight, As the lullaby keeps sweeping through the heart of the gentle night. The whispers of the breezes, and the rustling leaves in flight, Fill the heart of the gentle night, fill the heart of the gentle night. (Chorus) Gentle night, oh gentle night, under the moon's soft light, Rock us in your soothing arms, keep us safe from all alarms. Gentle night, oh gentle night, with your lullabies so right, In the heart of the gentle night, in the heart of the gentle night. (Outro) As we drift in slumber's tide, with the night as our gentle guide, We'll dream until the morning light, in the heart of the gentle night.
