[00:02.84] The evening hangs beneath the moon
[00:11.27]
[00:17.26] A silver thread on darkened dune
[00:24.87]
[00:29.94] With closing eyes and resting head
[00:39.33] I know that sleep is coming soon
[00:50.05]
[00:56.74] Upon my pillow, safe in bed
[01:04.51]
[01:10.07] A thousand pictures fill my head
[01:18.80]
[01:22.17] I cannot sleep my minds a flight
[01:28.55]
[01:30.25] And yet my limbs seem made of lead
[01:40.58]
[01:49.25] If there are noises in the night
[02:00.50]
[02:02.56] A frighting shadow, flickering light
[02:14.15]
[02:20.65] Then I surrender unto sleep
[02:27.54]
[02:29.73] Where clouds of dreams give second sight
[02:41.68]
[02:53.34] What dreams may come both dark and deep
[03:01.15]
[03:04.98] Of flying wings and soaring leap
[03:11.60]
[03:17.53] As I surrender unto sleep
[03:25.36]
[03:28.92] As I surrender unto sleep
[03:36.04]
[03:39.30] As I surrender unto sleep...
