2024 Broadway Swept Away the Musical - Go to Sleep Lyrics
The song is written by The Avett Brothers.
Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man Wipe the blood from you face and your hands Forgive yourself if you think that you can Go to sleep, go to sleep my man
Twenty-one days lost at sea I fought For twenty-two years non-stop I've talked Through the desert, pissed drunk, And confused I walked I spit a tooth in the palm of my hand
Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man Wipe the blood from you face and your hands Forgive yourself if you think that you can Go to sleep, go to sleep my man
Well the wind and the trees are ganging up on me They sing my funeral song in harmony I just want to walk home unaccompanied But they keep singing And singing and singing to me... La, La, La, La, La, La (I hear them singing) La, La, La, La, La, La (Singing for me) La, La, La, La, La, La (Oh!)
Well I wish things were different, true, and deep But everything that's so shallow Is everything about me You know they told me I could just take my money and leave I hope the people on the ground will understand I hope the people in the crowd will understand
Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man Wipe the blood from you face and your hands Forgive yourself if you think that you can Go to sleep, go to sleep my man La, La Go to sleep, go to sleep my man La, La Go to sleep, go to sleep my man
