About

Patti Smith’s son Jackson was born in 1982 to her and Fred Smith (who had the same last name as Patti). This song, which appeared on Patti Smith’s 1988 album, Dream of Life, is a lullaby to her son emphasizing his future independence, while asking him to remember his parents.

The Jackson Song Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Little blue dreamer, go to sleep
Let's close our eyes and call the deep
Slumbering land that just begins
When day is done and little dreamers spin
First, take my hand then let it go
Little blue boy you're on your own
Little blue wings as those feet fly
Little blue shoes that walk across the sky

[Chorus]
May your path be your own
But I'm with you
And each day you'll grow
He'll be there, too
And someday you'll go
We'll follow you
As you go, as you go

[Verse 2]
Little blue star that offers light
Little blue bird that offers flight
Little blue path where those feet fall
Little blue dreamer won't you dream it all

[Chorus]
May your path be your own
But I'm with you
And each day you'll grow
He'll be there, too
And someday you'll go
We'll follow you
As you go, as you go

[Outro]
And in your travels you will see
Warrior wings remember Daddy
And if a mama bird you see
Folding her wings, will you remember me?
As you go, as you go
As you go, as you go
