Hush-a-bye Baby down Just save your breath Stop spinning 'round so Just let time drip down My back Down down Slow down Why do you dance so fast Like a hummingbird in a hicktown Just let time drip down My sides Down down Let me whisper slowly in your ear Secrets spilled out close and clear We could spend the next 36 years Right here 'Cause I have watched the moon set And I have seen the snow turn into rain and back to snow again And I have watched the lights go out on the towers at the center of town Hush-a-bye Baby down Might as well save your breath Velocity don't make you younger Just let time drip down My shoulders Let me whisper slowly in your ear Secrets spilled out close and clear We could spend the next 43 years Right here Let me whisper slowly in your ear Secrets spilled out close and clear We could spend the next 69 years Right here
