Lyrics

outside
i hear the children play
and wonder why you stay away
was it something i said?
or was it something i did?
if you're mad at me
i'm so sorry

please
won't you please come home to your lavender room
so i can sing you a song
and give you a kiss
and you can touch me
on my cheek
goodnight

this home is still a house
and everything's in it's right place
and the quiet backyard
is so empty
and these sounds they bounce around...
around this vacant room
like the cavernous void inside my heart

so please
won't you please come home
to your lavender room
so i can sing you a song
and give you a kiss
and you can touch me on my cheek
goodnight
goodnight...

bridge

a vision in my mind
you look just like your mom
and your eyes light up my smile
and give me faith
and i want you to know that
i don't fear you anymore
and i'm ready to tuck you in...

repeat chorus
