Manifest Destiny

Sing me to sleep tonight

Sing me to sleep

Blank pages filled the spaces

I've held open so long

Train tracks pressing towards our faces

Ear drums clinging to the sound

One bright sun to say hello

Two of us to watch the moon

Three million miles 'till we make it

We'll never make it 'till we go

Let's rock the road, my sweet incredible

And we'll sing...

Sing me to sleep tonight

The ink pressed to the page

The blankets tucked in tightly

And a kiss from my love

Quiet whispers breaking silence

What goes on behind closed doors?

We sit, terrible asylum

But You'll hear us no more

The world lies before us

Turn the key and watch us burn

Our past lies behind us

But come on, let's go

Let's rock the road, my sweet incredible

And we'll sing...

Sing me to sleep tonight

The ink pressed to the page

The blankets tucked in tightly

And a kiss from my love

Read me a lullaby

The cold's biting at both ends

And don't leave me with the light out

The beginning to the end

I will stay on the path I've chose.

One last breath, don't take it away.

Headlights shine through the surreal.

Stars bright to destiny.

Grasp tightly to the wheel.

We'll find if we believe.

One bright sun to say hello

Two of us to watch the moon

Three million miles 'till we go

Sing me to sleep tonight

The ink pressed to the page

The blankets tucked in tightly

And a kiss from my love

Read me a lullaby

The cold's bighting at both ends

And don't leave me with the light out

The beginning to the end
