Valdy - Sonny's Dream lyrics

Sonny lives on a farm, in the wide open space You can kick off your sneekers, and give up the race You can lay your self down, by a sweet river bed Sonny always remembers, what it was his moma said Chorus Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone And your daddy's a sailor, and he never comes home And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong Sonny caries a load, He is barely a man There's not all that much to do, still he does the best he can And he lives in a room, at the top of the stairs And the sea keeps on rollin in it's done that for years Chorus Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone And your daddy's a singer, and he never comes home And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong Towns a hundred miles away Sonny's never been there He just goes to the highway and he stands there and stares And the mail comes at four and the mail man is old Yet he's still dreaming dreams filled with silver and gold Chorus Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone And your daddy's a sailor, and he never comes home And the nights get so long, and the silence goes on And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong Sonny don't go away, sonny don't go away
