There is a Castle on a Cloud

This song was introduced to me when I was in High School.  It is from the musical Les Miserables by Claude-Michel Schonberg.  The whole musical is full of beautiful melodies, but this one always stood out to me.  I have sung this song many times to my children.  I have altered the words slightly to be better adapted for singing as a lullaby.  (Altered words will be italicized).

There is a Castle on a Cloud

There is a castle on a cloud
I like to go there in my sleep
Aren't any tears for you to weep
Not in my castle on a cloud

There is a room that's full of toys
There are a hundred girls and boys
Nobody shouts or talks too loud
Not in my castle on a cloud

There is a lady all in white
Who'll hold you and sing a lullaby
She's nice to see, and she's soft to touch
And she says, sweetheart, I love you very much

I want to go where no one's lost
I want to go where no one cries
Crying at all is not allowed
Not in my castle on a cloud
