Robin Holcomb - Rockabye Lyrics
Put pen to the paper and signThe lines on both sides of your handI can readWhat settles out at the bottomOf a bottle of wineAre promises, liesYou can choose to believeWhen rumours won't leave you aloneYour words cast a shadowTry to fill in their formLay your hat on the tableO, I'll take your sideThe mirror allows what the darkness dividesYou'll never tell all that you knowIn spite of the shelterThe storm will blowThrough the pastures of safetyMay you plow the straight lineWalk slow, with a swing inThe river will risePass under my window and waveSirens yell at each otherI don't hear your nameSpin hard in a circleIf you want to go downSing praises to the neighbour whoIs tending the groundRockabyeThere'll be a blanket to cover youWhen you go downRockabyeThere'll be a blanket to cover youWhen you go downWhat you learn from the bottle is trueOne is too many and two are too fewLine up the small glassesO, tell me what you have heardThere's not a thing to laugh aboutTonight in this worldYou made me call all over townYou're easy to loseWhen you want to be foundI remember a roomLit by one brilliant lightThrow the windows wide openWe'll sit in the dark tonightRockabyeThere'll be a blanket to cover youWhen you go downRockabyeThere'll be a blanket to cover youWhen you go downPut pen to the paper and signThe lines on both sides of your handI can readWhat settles out at the bottomOf a bottle of wineAre promises, liesYou can choose to believe
