i read doctrine and
covenants chapter
six today while
waiting in the
temple today.

once there was a way to get back homeward,
once there was a way to get back home.
sleep pretty darling, do not cry,
and i will sing a lullaby.

golden slumbers fill you eyes.
smiles awake you when you rise.
sleep pretty darling, do not cry,
and I will sing a lullaby.

boy, you're gonna carry that weight, carry that weight a long time

i never give you my pillow,
i only send you my invitations.
and in the middle of the celebrations, i break down.

boy, you're gonna carry that weight, carry that weight a long time

are you gonna be in my dreams tonight?

and in the end,
the love you take is equal to the love you make
