lyrics

Oh the moon is an eyelash upon your face
Make a wish upon it, blow it back into space
And the owl and the pussycat, dish and the spoon
They all cast their hopes on your eyelash moon

I would give my heart, I would give my all
For a sweet little space into which I could crawl
For a moment's rest, a moment's peace
To close my eyes with my soul to keep

Here I am, chasin' rabbits inside my sleep
Surrounded instead by these wee silly sheep
They go one two three, one two three, one two and three
Thought I saw you there, oh but was that
Merely a dream

Deedle dee, deedle dee
One two three, one two three
Deedle dee, deedle dee
One two three, one two and three

Count the sheep, count the sheep
They are waltzing on vapors on air as you sleep
They go one two three, one two three, one, two and three
I would chase them but they won't get away from me

Deedle dee, deedle dee
One two three, one two three
Deedle dee, deedle dee
One two three, one two and three

I've got my grandmother's eyes
And hey, I've got your nose
Watch me run, watch me play,
Watch to see where it goes

I've got this little bag
full of worries and strife
Won't you stay here and
take it away for the night

I would give my heart, I would give my all
For a sweet little space into which I could crawl
For a moment's rest, a moment's peace
To close my eyes with my soul to keep

Here I am, chasin' rabbits inside my sleep
Surrounded instead by these wee silly sheep
They go one two three, one two three, one two and three
Thought I saw you there, oh but was that
Merely a dream

Deedle dee, deedle dee
One two three, one two three
Deedle dee, deedle dee
One two three, one two and three

about

stops. New York, New York

stops. was formed in New York City over the summer of 2013 as a two girl ukulele rock band. After quickly deciding that that was too twee, stops. (individually Alexandra Rae Ceribelli and Lilly Vanek) is now a "two piece with ambition" featuring banjo, bass uke, tenor uke, snare drum, bells, and whatever else we can get our hands on, as well as what has been described as "sexy ghost voices." ... more
