DmB
Sleep baby sleep
A
I don't mind if you leave;
DmBA
We will part in our dreams, let them come.
DmB
I'll give you my skin
A
But you can't have within;
DmB
Hold me tight as you like.
ADm
I will leave you when the day is done.
DmB
Wake with the dawn
A
Discover needles in my neck.
DmBA
Sleep it bade me turn my back on you.
DmB
I'll watch your chest
A
As it rises with each breath
DmB
But you still breathe beneath a river
ADmBA
that I'll never even wade through.
DmB
Give me your cup and
A
I'll give you mine.
DmB
But I'll prise it from your fingers
A
in surrender to the night.
DmB
The moon is bright
A
And hangs alone.
DmBA
Yeah, he's got the stars, but they've got their own
Solar systems.
And I really haven't figured out this part yet:
And I watch as he wards off the dark.
With the gift that the sun gave him.
And I learn from the moon what we are;
All alone.
But alone in a sea of lonely stars.
So go baby glow.
