Sister Sleep |
| Sister sleep come to my bedside and console me |
| Bring me anyone to hold me |
| For I spend too many waking hours in your company |
| Come and close my darkening eyes |
| With your light and nimble fingers |
| Tiptoe them over my eyelashes and sprinkle me with dust |
| Until time passes over us |
| I don’t know if you save souls |
| But could you pick mine up off the floor as you go |
| And bring it back tomorrow |
| Or bring me one I can borrow for the day, just for the day |
| Sister sleep sing me a story with your gentle voice |
| Give me just one reason to rejoice |
| Come and take this silence come and drown out this noise |
| Can I be forgiven 'til morning sun |
| Can I be your angel 'til judgement comes |
| I can see the sun |
| I don’t know if you save souls |
| But could you pick mine up off the floor as you go |
| And bring it back tomorrow |
| When you wake me into this sorrow |
| Or could you bring me a soul I can borrow |
| For the day, just for the day |
