Sleep you little soldier boy
With your ear against the wall
You have held that rifle all of your life
Now it's time to let it fallSleep you little alibi
With your reasons in a row
You have turned in circles all of your life
Just so your shadow wouldn't showDream with me, dream with me
We'll wake in better days
And we'll build a boat
And we'll hope that it floats
And we'll sail, we'll sail awayNow sleep you little resume
With your head above the crowd
You have held your breath in all of your life
Just to make somebody proudNow sleep you little reservoir
Let your banks just overflows
No you can't contain all of that rain
You're gonna have to let it goDream with me, dream with me
We'll wake in better light,
And until we rise with open eyes
Goodnight, my love, goodnightYes, until some sun wakes everyone
Goodnight, my love, goodnight
Goodnight
