Put pen to the paper and sign
The lines on both sides of your hand I can read What settles out at the bottom of a bottle of wine Are promises and lies you can choose to believe
When rumors won't leave you alone Your words cast a shadow, try to fill in their form Lay your hat on the table, I'll take your side The mirror allows what the darkness divides
You'll never tell all that you know In spite of the shelter the storm still will blow
Through the pastures of safety may you plow the straight line
Walk slow, with a swing in, the river will rise
Pass under my window and wave Sirens yell at each other, I don't hear your name Spin hard in a circle if you want to go down Sing praises to the neighbor who is tending that ground
Rockabye, there'll be a blanket to cover you When you go down
Rockabye, there'll be a blanket to cover youWhen you go down

What you learn from the bottle is true One is too many and two are too few Line up the small glasses, tell me what have you heard There's not a thing to laugh about tonight in this world

You made me call all over town
You're easy to lose when you want to be found
I remember a room lit by one brilliant light
Throw the windows wide open, we'll sit in the dark tonight

Rockabye, there'll be a blanket to cover you
When you go down Rockabye, there'll be a blanket to cover youWhen you go down

Put pen to the paper and sign
The lines on both sides of your hand I can read What settles out at the bottom of a bottle of wine Are promises and lies that you can choose to believe
