[shelbyK214S]

my mom sang this to me every night when i was a kid... back then i just thought it was a lullaby she made for me, but when i found out it was tom petty, i dove headfirst into his music.. and i know that when i have children i will sing this to them every night. just as my mother once did for me...

@olon1993 Shes so amazing. She listens to this song on here when i dont sing it to her and she knows my youtube account name and she found this comment on her own and liked it three times =) I love her

[dancerchikk13]

My daddy used to sing this to me every night when I was little. He also played it on the guitar. <3 <3 <3

[jeebee25]

I sing this to my baby daughter and she goes right to sleep. I would love to learn guitar so I can actually play it too.

[DanaiTheSuperZombie]

My dad used to have this CD in his car, and still does. So, this song makes me quite emotional. I have it on my iPod and when it comes on I just start crying like a baby. The song also REALLY relates to our relationship. We don't really go off of the future, but we're alright for now. So, basically this song really has a deep meaning to it for me.

[Pettyswoman]

Beautiful song. Thanks for sharing!

[sploopidy]

My daddy sang this to me when I was a baby. His voice is so strong and...I just sang this to my girlfriend as she was going to bed tonight. After she fell asleep - and when I realized where I had learned it, I cried. I love you daddy, and I love you Mo. I'll see you in the morning. <3

[angels4talent]

My husband used to sing this to me....sorta relaxed me at night...

[1143021]

I spent all day looking for this song. My ex and I used to sing it to our daughter every night, he passed away last summer and I've been thinking of this song. <3

[flyyspit]

My mama used to sing this to me as a child. I am 16, and even now I have her come into my room at night every once in a while to sing this beautiful song to me. <3

[Jimmy666Olsen]

I used to play this for my son born in '91 all the time.

[jennmiles5]

[adhdgirlswow]

This is the song that my dad would sing to me to get me to fall asleep when I was little. It brings tears to my eyes. One of the BEST songs ever! :)

[goster777]

I sang this song to my daughter too.. a thousand times,,at bedtime,,, she is now 13, and asks me to sing it to her.. Love it.! She is such a great girl!

[Ceibean]

I sang this to my little girl a few moments after she was born, and I still sing it to her now - badly - but she calls it 'Daddy's song' and there is no feeling like it on earth. Thanks Tom - you've probably made a whole load of Dads stand a little bit taller.

[illyria28]

My mom would play this song for me when I was little before I would go to bed. I loved it then and I still love it now. :)

[sullinsmarvin]

my daugher loved tom petty everytime she would hear one of his songs she would get up and dance and she was between 14 and 19 months old

[johnSaffire]

A masterpiece

[magicduck1]

My dad used to sing this all of the time. I'd fall asleep to it. I still do....

[vinnygarza]

I just had a dream in where I am singing this song to... I assume ... is my future kid... woke up with a funny feeling... Just found this comment as a nice coincidence.

[twoeffs38]

I was born in '88, this album came out in '89, so my dad listened to it a lot while I was a kid, and so I knew this was Dad's CD, but I wanted to listen to it all the time. I don't think my dad ever sang it to me as a kid, but in my little mind, it was him singing it to me because it was the music he liked.

[annathah]

Some nights I sing this to my wife and baby...one of the most beautiful songs ever forgotten

[jarguitar86]

One of the greatest unsung 'greatest hits' in Petty's 30 year catalog. This is one of those songs that will live on for generations.

[Pettyswoman]

After hearing this I can sleep easy. wnat a beautiful song. I was feeling down but now I"m great!!!Thanks

[lovejohnlennon]

Wow.....STUNNING!!!

[couchlane3]

this is my favorite tom petty song and this video makes it sooooo much better.

[SalenaJ27]

When I have children, I'm going to sing this song to them. The "tomorrow, I'm working", just struck a major chord for me. Beautiful.

[awesome96969]

[ireneusz5162]

[Tpathpslm557]

@ireneusz5162 This was my "baby song" (thats what i called it) too! my bro's was wildflowers, and when it was time for us to be put to sleep, we would each get our own song..

[bettyswollex]

[Yvonevil]

What an amazing talent. You have to wonder why great songs like this never make it onto the air.

[phoenixb12rise]

Thank You for posting this song...

I sung it to my son Phoenix practically every night since conception. He recognized it right away the first time he heard it outside the womb... I LUV IT - THANK YOU!

[phoenixb12rise]

Goodnight baby, sleep tight my love. May God watch over, you from above. Tomorrow I'm workin;'what would I do? I'd be lost and lonely, if not for you. So close your eyes; We're alright ... for now. I've spent my life travelin', I've spent my life free. I could not repay all, you've done for me . So sleep tight baby; Unfurrow your brow. And know I love you, We're alright for now...We're alright for now.

[funkyduck93]
