Lullaby

Dream sleep, dream sleep
still my thoughts
take me to your rivers
to sit among your ghosts

Dream sleep, dream sleep
tangled in the sheets
lift me in the darkness
to walk along your streets

Dream sleep, dream sleep
shadows of my mind
bring familiar strangers
with lives outside of time

Dream sleep, dream sleep
kaleidoscope of scenes
of parallel tomorrows
in someone else's dreams

Dream sleep, dream sleep
take me through the night
but leave me tracks to follow
in morning's earthly light

Lovely Parson Thru. First three stanzas are super the last two really good. Merry Christmas.

Have you composed a tune for it? I'd love to hear it sung.

Thank you Luly Whisper. I haven't, but maybe I should. Will have a think.
