Sleep

My love, lay down beside
And let your legs intertwine with mine
Inside we are but light
And it burns so bright tonight
The ocean’s tides are rising high
Not for the moon nor the pull implied
The reason why, for you they sigh
Like me they long to be by your side

So sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me

My love, the day has declined
The calm it brings is one divine
Indeed, it is sublime,
But we must make use of this time
For time persists, though we resist
Hears us entreat, but it still insists
So savor this ephemeral bliss
And lift those lips for me to kiss

And sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me

A kiss for the sweet
And safe in the sheets
Your tranquil retreat is waiting
The drop off is steep
You go falling deep
Serene as your eyes are closing
As waking leaves, you reach to find me
Content in you breathing softly
Prepare to receive the strangest of dreams
As you’re falling gently into…

Sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me
Sleep in peace with me
