SINGER: The Honour Recital

SONG:Manifest Destiny

Sing me to sleep tonight
sing me to sleep
Blank pages filled the spaces
i've held open so long
train tracks pressing towards our faces
ear drums clinging to the sound
one bright sun to say hello
two of us to watch the moon
three million miles 'till we make it
we'll never make it 'till we go
let's rock the road, my sweet incredible
and we'll sing...
Sing me to sleep tonight
the ink pressed to the page
the blankets tucked in tightly
and a kiss from my love
Quiet whispers breaking silence
what goes on behind closed doors?
we sit, terrible asylum
but you'll hear us no more
the world lies before us
turn the key and watch us burn
our past lies behind us
but come on, let's go
let's rock the road, my sweet incredible
and we'll sing...
Sing me to sleep tonight
the ink pressed to the page
the blankets tucked in tightly
and a kiss from my love
read me a lullaby
the cold's biting at both ends
and don't leave me with the light out
the beginning to the end
I will stay on the path i've chose.
one last breath, don't take it away.
headlights shine through the surreal.
stars bright to destiny.
grasp tightly to the wheel.
we'll find if we believe.
One bright sun to say hello
two of us to watch the moon
three million miles 'till we go
Sing me to sleep tonight
the ink pressed to the page
the blankets tucked in tightly
and a kiss from my love
read me a lullaby
the cold's bighting at both ends
and don't leave me with the light out
the beginning to the end
