Master of Dreams

When at sleep you lie, I bring to you, 
soft music in the still of night,
 and with each whispered word I speak,
 I grant for you the dreams you seek.

A thousand lanterns lights the gloom,
 a thousand ships upon the sea,
 with every wave that breaks the shore, 
a dream I bring to thee.

The past is but a breath away,
so board my ship and come with me,
and we will visit bygone shores, 
A night of dreams I pledge to thee.

Or is it that you wish of me,
 that you may sail the skies above 
and float suspended with the stars
 and seek the path to future love.

A thousand lanterns light the gloom,
 a thousand ships upon the sea,
 with every wave that breaks the shore,
 A dream I bring to thee.
