lyrics

Ashes in the air
they turn to oxygen
the cinders blowing in the breeze
filling up my lungs

talk me to sleep again tonight my dear
talk me to sleep again tonight

Ashes in the air
turn to oxygen
the flags that wave in the breeze
they're waving to you and i
so give me one slow dance
underneath the hot, the hot Missouri sky

and talk me to sleep again tonight my dear
talk me to sleep again tonight

it's a long way
from here to California
with all the dead end streets
we seem to wind up on
now what if we both could find
that clawing through the dirt and the worms
a beautiful ray of light
rising from the ground

talk me to sleep again tonight my dear
talk me to sleep again tonight
