Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Morning, your toast, your tea and sugar
Read about the politician's lover
Go through the day like knife through butter
Why don't you?
[Verse 2]
You dress in the colours of forgiveness
Your eyes as red as Christmas
Purple robes are folded on the kitchen chair
[Chorus]
You're gonna sleep like a baby tonight
In your dreams, everything is alright
Tomorrow dawns like someone else's suicide
You're gonna sleep like a baby tonight
[Verse 3]
Dreams, it's a dirty business dreamin'
Where there is silence and not screamin'
Where there's no daylight, there's no healin'
[Chorus]
No, no
You're gonna sleep like a baby tonight
In your dreams, everything is alright
Tomorrow dawns like someone else's suicide
But you're gonna sleep like a baby tonight
[Verse 4]
Hope, hope is where the door is
When the church is where the war is
Where no one can feel no one else's pain
[Chorus]
You're gonna sleep like a baby tonight
In your dreams, everything is alright
Tomorrow dawns like a suicide
But you're gonna sleep like a baby tonight
[Outro]
Sleep like a baby tonight
Like a bird, your dreams'll take a flight
Like St. Francis covered in light
You're gonna sleep like a baby tonight
