Ring Me to Sleep

No girls allowed in the back of the van
No crying now or holding hands
No long-neck birds with their heads in the sand
No foreign papers exchanging hands

That lonely siren song you've been hearing in your dream
Is just a chapel bell, and it wakes you every evening
A lonesome song, but it's someone else's blues
Sleep, Sleep, Ring me to sleep

No signs or sirens to keep us out
No silver lining or song about
No amount of violence can make the sound
No amount of violence can make the sound

That lonely siren song you've been hearing in your dream
Is just a chapel bell, and it wakes you every evening
A lonesome song, but it's someone else's blues
Sleep, sleep, ring me to sleep

There's no time to fall in love
