Sleep

Sleep

The velvet darkness

Where time stands still

Those sweet hours

Where the challenged finds

A moment's refuge

Embrace the warm shadows

Unconscious the truth

The torn soul leaves its house

And journeys on moonpaths

To the edge of the world

And for a brief while

Again you feel the caress of the wind

On the plains of evermore

Bird of sleep come carry us

Upon the wings of freedom

Journey to the refuge on the other side

Play again like children

Without sorrow in our hearts

And when you fly us back

We'll shine with the morning star
