LULLABY 101

sleep you little soldier boy, with your ear against the wall
you have held that rifle all of your life, now it’s time to let it fall

sleep you little alibi, with your reasons in a row
you have turned in circles all of your life just so your shadow wouldn’t show
dream with me, dream with me, we’ll wake in better days,
and we’ll build a boat and we’ll hope that it floats
and then we’ll sail, we’ll sail away

sleep you little resume, with your head above the crowd
you have held your breath in all of your life just to make somebody proud

sleep you little reservoir, let your banks just overflow
no you can’t contain all of that rain, you’re gonna have to let it go

dream with me, dream with me, we’ll wake in better light,
and until we rise with open eyes, goodnight, my love, goodnight
yes until some sun wakes everyone, goodnight, my love, goodnight
