lyrics

I’ve shared enough houses with strangers and mouses,
the blare of a TV my lullabye tune.
I’m meant for a bed with stars overhead,
a blanket of freedom, and you.

So sing me to dreaming. The cat’s got your meaning,
but your tongue seems to make the words just fine.
What do we need, but our songs, and our dreams,
and the faith that we’ll make it all right? Make it all right? Make it all right?


Through long drives and cold nights, a dark stage with bright lights.
The faces are blurring in the crowd.
There’s so much inside me, been locked up and hiding,
scratching at my skin to get out.

So sing me to dreaming. The cat’s got your meaning,
but your tongue seems to make the words just fine.
What do we need, but our songs, and our dreams,
and the faith that we’ll make it all right? Make it all right? Make it all right?


If home’s where my heart is, it’s gone and departed.
That train left the station long ago.
‘Been talking ‘bout leaving, but words are deceiving.
We’re still here with everyone we know.

So sing me to dreaming. The cat’s got your meaning,
but your tongue seems to make the words just fine.
What do we need, but our songs, and our dreams,
and the faith that we’ll make it all right?
Make it all right? Make it all right?
Make it all right? Make it all right?
