Sleep away the dayI know you've been out lateCause I've heard you coming home at dawnShafts of light will fallMove slowly down your wallCome to rest on last night's pile of clothesThought you'd keep the noise downShe wakes up andLet the slightest soundKeep the noise downSleep away the dayAll messages can waitNo one is moving anywhereAnd when you're asleepWell how could youCareBut could youKeep the noise downShe wakes upAt the slightest soundKeep the noise downShe wakes upAt the slightest soundKeep the noise downAnd when the sunCan seeThat she won't be finding theseDark folksDaytime refugeesThen we'll turn and coughThrow the bedclothes offOh true loveA glass of water pleaseWould you keep the noise downShe wakes up andLet the slightest soundKeep the noise downShe wakes up andLet the slightest soundKeep the noise downShe wakes up andLet me make the noiseShe wakes up andWould you keep the noise down?Would you keep the noise down?Sleep away, sleep away todaySleep away, sleep away today
