The Avett Brothers - Go to Sleep lyrics

Artist: The Avett Brothers

album: Emotionalism (Bonus Track Version)


Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man
Wipe the blood from you face and your hands
Forgive yourself, if you think 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 talked
Through the desert, pissed drunk, and confused I walked
I spit a tooth in the palm of my hand
(Yeah) Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man
Wipe the blood from you face and your hands
Forgive yourself if you think you can
Go to sleep, go to sleep my man

Yeah the wind and the trees are ganging up on me
They sing my funeral song in harmony
Well, I just want to walk home unaccompanied
But they keep singing (singing)
They keep singing (singing)
Singing, they keep singing (singing)
Singing, they keep singing (singing) to me
(La, la, la, la, la, la)
Singing to me
(La, la, la, la, la, la)
I hear them singing
(La, la, la, la, la, la, whooo)

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, yea aaah
Lay back, lay back, go to sleep my man
Wipe the blood from you face and your hands
Forgive yourself if you think 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 mannnn
(Yo)

(T-the-4, whew)

(Woo)
