Rock Me to Sleep

All I can hear are the crickets

And the whistle from some lonely freight

I've been working so hard to make everything right

But for now it'll just have to wait

'Cause tonight I'd like you to rock me to sleep

I'd like you to sing me a song

I'm tired of trying to figure things out

And I'm tired of being so strong

I've never been too good at asking

I'm more apt to do it alone

And it's strange how a lot of us think something's wrong

If we can't do it all on our own

'Cause tonight I'd like you to rock me to sleep

I'd like you to sing me a song

I'm tired of trying to figure things out

And I'm tired of being so strong

It's funny how times when your hurtin'

Make what's so familiar seem strange

And when you need help, it's hardest to ask

And it always takes so long to change

'Cause tonight I'd like you to rock me to sleep

I'd like you to sing me a song

I'm tired of trying to figure things out

And I'm tired of being so strong
