Rock This Baby to Sleep

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
I passed a wedding by the lake
There was a bagpiper piping
There were three too many bridesmaids
But you were not with me

[Pre–Chorus]
I want things back the way they were
I want things back the way they were

[Chorus]
I want to rock
I want to rock this baby to sleep

[Post–Chorus 1]
(Sleep, sleep, sleep)
To sleep (sleep, sleep, sleep)

[Verse 3]
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

[Pre–Chorus]
I want things back the way they were
I want things back the way they were

[Chorus]
I want to rock
I want to rock this baby to sleep

[Post–Chorus 2]
Sleep
Sleep
Sleep

[Bridge]
If I can’t have what I want
Dear God, let me want what I have
If I can’t have what I want
Dear God, let me want what I have, let me want

[Outro]
If I can’t (if I can't) have what I want (have what I want)
Dear God (dear God), let me want what I have (want what I have)
If I can’t (if I can't) have what I want (have what I want)
Dear God, let me want what I have
(want what I have, want what I have)
Let me want what I have
