St. Toms Lullaby by The Welcome Wagon Lyrics

Go to sleep, my baby boy
Through the window, the streetlight will stay up with me
I'll be there when you wake up
I'll be there when the night comes to call with it's grief

And I pray that you will not feel
All the weight of what you mean to me
And I pray that you will receive
Every good possibility

The stars
The stars
The stars
The stars

Let's go home dad, it's getting late
Not one more for the road
I know where this road goes
And if you have to close you eyes
Take your hands of the wheel
I can drive us both home
Go to sleep dad, you little boy
In the house where they made you
To sleep in the hall
Not a father to sing for you
Not a dream left to dream
No more dreams left at all

The dark
The dark
The dark
The dark

Close you eyes, my father's son
I will sing you to sleep
Though I might sing off key
In the dark with the noise in your head
Lay your cheek on my breast
Though you know it's just me

In the morning you'll be okay
In the light of the day all the ghosts disappear
Though I know it seems far away
I will wait through the night
I will stay with you here

The moon
The moon
The moon
The moon
