Natasha Khan sees it as a “healing and nurturing” song.
[Intro]
Come on now, rest your head
And I’ll protect you
You’ve been running too fast, running for fear
You’ve got to stop sometime soon

You’ve been running up hills and running too slow
But just keep on running, keep on running
Look what you find, look what you find
[Chorus]
Come on and rest your head!
And I will protect you
Come on now!
Come on and rest your head
You gotta stop sometime soon
[Verse 2]

Stick to the spot
[Chorus]
Come on and rest your head!
And I will protect you
Come on now!
Come on and rest your head
You gotta stop sometime soon
