Please rest your head—your shoulders are heavy
Just close your eyes, just for a second, darling
The day has passed, and you seem so worried
Your eyes stay lost—hidden in the ceiling
The sun had gone down behind the crescents
The light disappeared before you had even noticed
But the sun will shine in the morning
As you lie far away dreaming
Fly, my paper crane, fly
So is there nothing I can say?
Oh, I know it's hard
Fly my paper crane
Try and get some sleep
Rest your weary head
Don't be scared to dream
Of places that had brighter days
When you remember bluer skies
I can promise you one little thing
Everything will be alright
