Embrace Me, You Child (2015 Remastered) - Carly Simon[00:00:00]
Written by:Carly Simon[00:00:03]
At night in bed I heard God whisper lullabies[00:00:04]
While daddy next door whistled whiskey tunes[00:00:12]
Sometimes when I wanted they would harmonize[00:00:19]
There was nothing those two couldn't do[00:00:26]
Embrace me you child you're a child of mine[00:00:32]
And I'm leaving everything I am to you[00:00:40]
Go chase the wild and night time streets sang daddy[00:00:46]
And God sang[00:00:54]
Pray the devil doesn't get to you[00:00:56]
I thought together they must sing the moon away[00:01:04]
I thought that they must know each other well[00:01:11]
For the magic that they made when they played[00:01:18]
Wasn't lost between their Heaven and their Hell[00:01:25]
Embrace me you child you're a child of mine[00:01:31]
And I'm leaving everything I am to you[00:01:39]
Go chase the wild and night time streets sang daddy[00:01:46]
And God sang[00:01:53]
Pray the devil doesn't get to you[00:01:55]
Then one night daddy died and went to Heaven[00:02:13]
And God came down to earth and slipped away[00:02:20]
I pretended not to know I'd been abandoned[00:02:27]
But no-one sang the night into the day[00:02:35]
And later night time songs came back again[00:02:41]
But the singers don't compare with those I knew[00:02:48]
And I never figured out where God and daddy went[00:02:55]
But there was nothing those two couldn't do[00:03:03]
Embrace me you child you're a child of mine[00:03:09]
And I'm leaving everything I am to you[00:03:19]
Go chase the wild and night time streets sang daddy[00:03:25]
And God sang[00:03:35]
Pray the devil doesn't get to you[00:03:37]
