So that you might sleep...
Do not cry, my little one
Just because the day has gone
Darkness brings the purity
Close your eyes and truly see
Sleep now, my dear
Fear not the night
It is a friend
'Til dawn's cold light
Silent spirits guide your heart
Wildest dreams drive back the dark
A blackened sky, kissed by stars
Will lead your soul to places far
Sweet shadows
Come creeping home
Fear not, my child
You're not alone
