a pillow of winds
A cloud of eiderdown
Draws around me
Softening a sound
Sleepy time, when I lie
With my love by my side
And she’s breathing low
And the candle dies
When night comes down, you lock the door
The book falls to the floor
As darkness falls, the waves roll by
The seasons change, the wind is warm
Now wakes the owl, now sleeps the swan
Behold a dream, the dream is gone
Green fields, a cold rain is falling
In a golden dawn
And deep beneath the ground
The early morning sounds
And I go down
Sleepy time, when I lie
With my love by my side
And she’s breathing low
And I rise, like a bird
In the haze, when the first rays
Touch the sky
And the night winds die
