Lyrics

Little One

One more little one
I'll go down
And stay down
And sleep the rest of the day

Dream new music
To calm down
And stay down
And keep evil away

I can hear you asleep
Changing your shape
Dissolved in some dream

As a new one appears
To take you along
Where you've never been

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Moonlight tonight

Seems to belong to me 'cause I
Even though soon can sleep
I need some company

One hit wouldn't hurt a bit
I'll slow down and sleep
The rest of the time

If it's good shit
You won't know
And I won't know
The fact that I'm dying

If I seem to be reckless with myself
It's the fault of no one

All things have a place
Under the moon
As well as the sun

One more little one I love you
