[00:04.48]	HOMER:The house was quiet; 'member, Floyd?
[00:07.65]	We was all snorin' an' sleepin' real sound
[00:11.96]	You came atop the hill Floyd
[00:14.83]	Like a monkey jes' a-screechin' and a leapin'
[00:18.73]	Ya crazy loon
[00:21.11]	'Member, Floyd?
[00:24.17]	'Member how ya' screamed?
[00:27.41]	You hollered somethin' 'bout a cave;
[00:30.42]	In our nightclothes we came a-toddlin' out
[00:34.37]	An' Miss Jane in that ol' sleepin' bonnet
[00:37.74]	Like a duck she was a waddlin'
[00:42.25]	'Member, Floyd?
[00:45.22]	'Member how she looked?
[00:49.28]	We was holdin' hands
[00:53.28]	As you marched us across the field
[00:59.17]	Was a whole mess a' stars that night...
[01:07.54]	As we enter in
[01:09.85]	The lights of the sky die down
[01:15.55]	Like still, like cool, like nightfall...
[01:26.70]	We have each other's hands
[01:29.20]	We have what we can picture
[01:31.20]	That's all we need to pass the time...
[01:44.71]	FLOYD:Time inside has a way of flowin' on
[01:48.89]	HOMER:Goin' on a wind
[01:51.12]	FLOYD:It take itself a dive
[01:53.12]	HOMER:Time inside kinda' puts me in a mind of
[01:57.50]	When Mama was alive
[02:01.42]	HOMER & FLOYD:When Mama was alive
[02:07.57]	No one even says a word;
[02:10.42]	We are happy dreamin', we are
[02:14.75]	An' before we know it—
[02:20.29]	Daybreak is on
[02:26.73]	HOMER:That's how it's gonna be;
[02:28.73]	That I promise
[02:31.90]	Long as you remember that
[02:34.48]	From nightfall to daybreak
[02:42.91]	From sundown to dawn
[02:52.88]	I'm stayin' here
[03:02.23]
[03:03.94]	That's right, you rest now.
[03:08.57]	Your baby brother's gonna git you through the night
