In the live recording, the words seem to be different.
For instance, the lines
"counting sheep
I lay me down to sleep
but I see a sheep that will not leave"
appear to be:
counting sheep
I lay me down to sleep
Please don't leave me with my awful dreams.
Is this true, or do my ears deceive me yet again? :P
Also, the bit about America doesn't sound like it's being said in the recording. The words seem to be similar, but is the word "America" there?
Simply gorgeous song. Feels like such a lullaby (in quite the creepy way, mind you!)... which I find interesting when I match that with something tiltinghead has mentioned.
I'm sure CabaretKittie has nailed the meaning right to the wall, so I haven't much to pitch in. :)
I'm curious.
