Bedtime
I held you, I rocked you to sleep
It'd take a long time but eventually you'd go
and I'd try to get out of the rocking chair
with you in my arms
I'd get you to your crib, slowly lower you down
then pull my hands away, as if from a bomb
Then I'd step away, one step at a time
The floors were full of sand
all the creeks of time
Then I'd get to the door
open it carefully
And turn back to our room so quietly
When I'd got to the door, closed within an inch
That's when you'd come awake
as if you'd been watching
Watching me the whole time
As if you waited to see

If I truly intend, just to let you be
Just to leave, just to leave you alone
Just toleave you alone
How you would cry
And I'd come back, yeah I'd come back
And lift you up, sit back down with you
Try too start all over again
Start slowly rocking again
Start all over again
We'd start all over again
I'd come back, I'd come back
lift you up
Start all over again
