Rock This Baby to Sleep - Kate Miller-Heidke

I took a walk through Central Park

The trees were sleeping in the sun

I saw the couples lying on the grass

But you were not with me

I passed a wedding by the lake

There was a bagpiper piping

There were three too many bridesmaids

But you were not with me

I want things back the way they were

I want things back the way they were

I want to rock this baby to sleep

There are twelve hours in a day

But over fifty in a night

I live inside this hot and restless brain

When you are not with me

I want things back the way they were

I want things back the way they were

I want to rock this baby to sleep

If I can’t have what I want

Dear god, let me want what I have
