And over again now to Marianne Faithfull and John Mark
Er, before we do the song, Marianne
I'm sure all your fans would like to know, how's the baby?
Ah, he's very well, he's had a cold but I think it's just about better now
And if there's anyone left who doesn't know, what's his name?
Nicholas
Do you, erm, do you find time to sing to him?
Um, well no, I sort of just go, "Shush, shush", I'm a bit shy singing to him
But John's written a lullaby for him and his own baby
John's got a little girl now, called Francesca
Oh, how old, do you know?
Just about two days older than mine
This could be the start of something big
What did you say the lullaby was called
Lullaby
Oh, well that couldn't be better could it
Would you sing that for us?
Yes
Hush now little one
The day has lost its glow
The night falls softly 'round
The sandman's sleepy souls
Sleep
The stars will shine tonight
High up in the sky
The breeze will sing a song
As he goes hurrying by
Sleep
For you the sun will rise
For you the dawn will break
Hush now, all is still
Hush now till you wake
Sleep
So sleep
