Defiance, Ohio Lullabies Lyrics

lay your head next to mine
and we'll sleep one good sleep tonight.
fall asleep, love, to forget or to dream
fall asleep to leave this world behind.

and i wish for you, friend,
to lie down in peace and
i wish for you always to know
that as long as you'll dream
under these stars in the sky
that we've seen since the day we were born

to move but don't move too fast
for your dreams or your grandest of plans.

dream of nights of fireflies
and skies so clear, so untouched.
dream of a time, of a place for us
to live, so free, so free.

just as quick as you can fall asleep.
