V5.5

Easy now... The moon is working overtime tonight... I used to run these old highways With six strings and a restless soul Thought every town was waiting for me Thought every crowd could make me whole I've watched the sunrise through motel curtains I've played beneath a thousand lights But none of them ever shined this softly As your eyes tonight Your little hand fits in my finger Like it was always meant to be Funny how this whole wide world Got smaller sitting here with me The old clock ticks The house keeps breathing The porch boards sing beneath the rain And every mile I ever wandered Feels worth it once again Someday you'll chase your own horizon Someday you'll walk beyond this room But tonight the stars can wait a while The night belongs to you Sleep little light Sleep little dream The world ain't half as hard As it can sometimes seem And if the dark comes knocking Like it sometimes will Sleep little light I've got you still There are stories in these old hands And roads behind these tired eyes A thousand wrong turns A few right ones And more hellos than goodbyes Maybe one day I'll tell you all of them When you're bigger than my knee But tonight's not for remembering Tonight's for simply being free The stars don't need a stage to shine The river doesn't need applause The sweetest things I've ever known Never cared for any cause And you... You're already enough Just as you are Sleep little light Sleep little dream Tomorrow's waiting patiently Beyond the window screen And if the wind gets restless Or the thunder starts to roll Sleep little light You're safe inside my soul The moon is working overtime
