A lullaby, of sorts. For those who have, or have had, small children. You know.
lyrics
v1:
What would it take for you to finally go to sleep?
A car in 15 years? It could even be a jeep
No need to worry, I'll pray your should to keep
What would it take for you to finally go to sleep?
v2:
What would I have to pay for you to close your eyes?
I promise when you open them, there'll be nothing but sunny skies
But you continue to resist, I don't know why I am surprised
What would I have to pay for you to close your eyes?
v3:
What would I need to do for you to take a nap?
How 'bout a vacation, anywhere on the map
I could join you, just crawl up on my lap
Would it be OK if we both just took a nap?
