(Sleep)

|
[chorus]
|
The hazy days go to nights returning on and on
|
The eye in the sky that don't lie be watching all y'all
|
The troublesome time filled anxieties just keep crawling on
|
And a dream world line up in your mind just keep on calling y'all
|
|
The shining lights of stages after the show are faded
|
The crowd is gone away, and now the dawning day
|
Gives way to creatures lurking, can hear the crickets chirping
|
Only the owls can see for this is when they start their prey
|
The homeless ask for quarters for shelter and some water
|
Say "sorry not today" and turn and walk away
|
The busy street is empty whistling winds are blowing gently
|
Listening intently to all of the things they have to say
|
A day of work completed a night of rest is needed
|
Almost done read a book but eyelids to heavy to read it
|
The fireplace is kindling, snug with your queen and building
|
About the victories tomorrow's gonna bring your way
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
(I hope that what I have written will be of some assistance)
|
|
Gazing outside the window the sunny skies dwindle
|
And now it's full of stars a hurling comet soars
|
While during the body slumber the soul begins to wander
|
To dream dimensions see the inner conscious doesn't pause
|
Keeps moving where it's bound to say now I lay me down to
|
After that stretch and yawn energy left and gone
|
The sandman's on your shoulder whispering in your ear he told you
|
Let all your problems go tonight I'm rapping hear my song
|
A day of work completed a night of rest is needed
|
Almost done read a book but eyelids to heavy to read it
|
The fireplace is kindling snug with your queen and building
|
About the victories tomorrow's gonna bring your way
|
|
