Baby, sing me to sleep
Painful memories when you say that you need me
You save me from leaving things that I might need
But the missing piece is out of my reach
But I don't mind if you can't be with me all of the time
So be on your way. No, that is not what I wanted to say
I just want you, no, I need you to stay
Baby, sing me to sleep
Drunken melodies when you say that you love me
Well, maybe I need to guarantee
'Cause the way you speak, you're scaring me
But I don't mind if you can't be with me all of the time
So be on your way. No, that is not what I wanted to say
I just want you, no, I need you to stay
And I know, I know that it won't be long
'Till you a-running, righting the wrongs
Ignoring the light to swallow the fright
To make it in time to keep me safe tonight
Baby, sing me to sleep
No apologies when you say that you love me
But I don't mind if you can't be with me all of the time
So be on your way. No, that is not what I wanted to say
I just want you, no, I need you to stay
