The day is done
Time for bed
In the morning I wake
Not rested, but feeling…
Feeling only pure dread
I can’t stand waking,
Faking my will to be taking it again
Another day of aching
Waking and waiting
For the day my paining ends
With a friend like the sun,
Why need the moon as my enemy?
Rock me to sleep
I need the peace
My love, I’m begging you
Baby…please
Rock me to sleep
Take me in your arms
Lay me down to sleep
And promise you won’t be alarmed
When my heart ceases to beat
Shed no tears
That’s not allowed
Staining your face
That ground’s hallowed
With a friend like the sun,
Why need the moon as my enemy?
With a keeper like you,
Why need a priest to give my last rites?
Rock me to sleep
I need the peace
My love, I’m begging you
Baby…please
Rock me to sleep
[about 30 seconds or so of instrumental]
Be my savior
By being my end
Your lips…let me savor
Your breath…share once more that flavor
The end of my path is just ‘round the bend
Rock me to sleep
I need the peace
My love, I’m begging you
Baby…please
Rock me to sleep
A life without you is a fate worse than death
Eternity in Heaven is even more hellish
So wrap your arms around my neck
Death by your embrace…
The last thing in life I shall relish
With a friend like Death,
Why need Life as my enemy?
So I ask once more…
Rock me to sleep
I need the peace
My love, I’m begging you
Baby…please
Rock me to sleep
Rock me to sleep
I need the peace
My love, I’m begging you
Baby…please
Rock me to sleep
