Ben Folds Five

Lullabye

Goodnight, goodnight sweet baby

the world has more for you

than it seems

goodnight, goodnight

let the moonlight take the lid off your dreams

we took a small flight

in the middle of the night

from one tiny place to another

and my parents they remained

at the shack with lorraine

and my aunt and my grandpa and brother

we walked past the tarmac

and boarded the craft

the rain had me chilled to the bones

just the three of us took flight that night,

uncle richard, me and james earl jones

and the pilot he gave me a blanket

while the tall dark man sang to me in deep rich tones...

goodnight, goodnight sweet baby

the world has more for you

than it seems

goodnight, goodnight

let the moonlight take the lid off your dreams
