Story behind the song
Wanted to try and write a lullaby-type song for my nephew, but it ended up too sad and scary! Better luck next time.
Lyrics
Go to sleep little child
don't be scared of what you find
The sights you dream, the sounds you hear
cannot hurt you while I am here
to hold you head, to sing a song
to let you see there's nothing wrong
Go to sleep little child
you'll grow up in the night
Stay with me, we'll be alright
There no rush, you've lots of time
To get the girl, to break your heart
To finish school, to make a start
To buy a house, or pay the rent
To see the world that you've been lent
To take a wife, or live alone
To feel the age creep in your bones
Go to sleep
