Hush Now lyrics

I won t bury you in the basement
As I ve been known to do
I won t bludgeon your memory
Leave you crying out for truth

There s a song we sing together
The song of me and you
And I was hoping that we could fix it
At least just fiddle around with the tune

But you go right, I go left
You go forward, I go back
And we re dancing this waltz alone
You go up, I go down, lost our grip
And now we ve found ourselves
Dancing this waltz alone

Hush now, don t cry
It s just a lullaby
I won t leave you
Til you close your eyes
Hush now don t cry
It s just a lullaby
I ll tell you sweet lies
I won t leave your side

We were peaceful when we were sleeping
Or after we had a fight
We were civil when people were watching
We were worst when we were right

You d go in, I d go out
We d forget what it s about
And we d start dancing this waltz alone
You would smile and I d frown
You gave it up, now who s the clown
That is dancing this waltz alone

Hush now, don t cry
It s just a lullaby
I won t leave you
Til you close your eyes
Hush now don t cry
It s just a lullaby
I ll tell you sweet lies
I won t leave your side
