lyrics

• baby’s breath •

A baby’s baby breath
So shallow and so sweet
An untimely death
Before you even found your feet

Oh no

Try not to step on a rusty nail
Try not to eat a bee
Have fun with your sand and pail
Try and remember me

Grow

Try not to come home bombed
Try even if you fail
Try and be kind to your mom
She’ll need some wind in her sails

Blow

I didn’t let you go
I could never do that no
I just drifted away
In my sleep

Sweet dreams baby
Baby sweet dreams baby
Sweet dreams baby
Baby sweet dreams baby
Sweet dreams baby
Baby sweet dreams baby
Sweet dreams

Your daddy didn’t leave home
I just can’t be there now
Just know you’re not alone
Just don’t throw in the towel

Imagine i’m with you
From the crib to the car to the church
Watching from afar
As you tuck in your own

Oh

I didn’t let you go
I could never do that no
I just drifted away
In my sleep

Go

Sweet dreams baby
Baby sweet dreams baby
Sweet dreams baby
Baby sweet dreams baby
Sweet dreams
