Sleep my love as the trees above protect you from the dark.
A great river will watch you as you dream until dawn.
Sleep my love, close your eyes.
And when you awaken, the new day will bring to you a bright new world.
Sleep my love as the birds above.
Do rest their weary wings.
Let the rain play a gentle song to help your dreams sing.
Sleep my love, close your eyes.
And when you awaken, the new day will bring to you a bright new world.
Ever so gently hear my voice.
Ever so softly feel my touch.
Always so gently I walk.
So go to sleep, my love.
