Softening the sound
 Sleepy time when I lie
 With my love by my side
 And she?s breathing low
 And the candle dies

 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

 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

 And deep beneath the ground
 the early morning sounds
 And I go down
 Sleeping time when I lie
 With my love by my side
 And she?s breathing low
 And I rise like a bird
 In the haze when the first rays touch the sky
 And the night winds die
