Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A cloud of eiderdown
Draws around me
Softening the sound
[Verse 2]
Sleepy time, when I lie
With my love by my side
And she's breathing low
[Verse 3]
And the candle dies
[Verse 4]
When night comes down, you lock the door
The book falls to the floor
As darkness falls and waves roll by
The seasons change, the wind is warm
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
And deep beneath the ground
The early morning sounds
And I go down
[Verse 7]
Sleepy time, when I lie
With my love by my side
And she's breathing low
[Verse 8]
And I rise, like a bird
In the haze, when the first rays
Touch the sky
And the night winds die
