Now look, see how they're dreaming
The black reciteries, while the children dream
Don't go so deep in slumber
Where you'll shy
Know you'll wander in sleep
Don't you fly too far away
Some men die without crying
Suffering so long and alone
Softly, children, dry your eyes
Gently, children, be wise
My attends to you as a mother hears all her children's fears
So don't cry, all will wash away when we pray
Soon, soon, soon, soon, soon
So if it's okay, i'll wait with you while the sun began to shine
Oh look, your wings are broken
But never a lie was spoken
The murdered thing is love, you see
Drifting on a lake of memory
Now sleep, close your eyes and have no fear
A wide blue sky is very near
Soon, soon, soon, soon, soon
Now sleep, close your eyes and have no fear
A wide blue sky is very near
My attends to you as a mother fears while her children sleep Now look, see how they're dreaming The black reciteries, while the children dream Don't go so deep in slumber Where you'll shy Know you'll wander in sleep Don't you fly too far away Some men die without crying Suffering so long and alone Softly, children, dry your eyes Gently, children, be wise My attends to you as a mother hears all her children's fears So don't cry, all will wash away when we pray Soon, soon, soon, soon, soon So if it's okay, i'll wait with you while the sun began to shine Oh look, your wings are broken But never a lie was spoken The murdered thing is love, you see Drifting on a lake of memory Now sleep, close your eyes and have no fear A wide blue sky is very near Soon, soon, soon, soon, soon Now sleep, close your eyes and have no fear A wide blue sky is very near Explain Request ×
