Greg Brown - One More Goodnight Kiss lyrics

The children are crying The dead leaves are flying The rain and the world news Fall in the abyss Nothin' we can do 'bout nothin'. Please will you, Give me one more goodnight kiss The new phone sounds like a turkey Says hurry hurry hurry hurry I'm gonna unplug that s**er There's nothin' I'd hate to miss Except for your weary face Your half dreaming embrace And one more goodnight kiss The scariest thing I see Is the d**h of Halloween No treats for the children Just all these grown up tricks Well let's dress them up dandy They can come to our door for candy And one more goodnight kiss Maybe it will rain all night Maybe it will snow Maybe we will dream it's alright Maybe when we wake up Maybe we could take up Where we left off tonight The big picture's insane The whole country's on c**aine And the idiots still ask Why it's come to this As they lean on their missiles And polish their pistols Aah give me one more goodnight kiss. Um give me one more goodnight kiss
