Slipping Away

Go to sleep my darling
Close your eyes my precious
Let the problems of the day
Slip far far away

Fall into a deep slumber
In the pleasure of darkness
Be comfortable for my sake
While I wait for the promise of daybreak

Get away to your fantasy
Sunshine and love everywhere
Forget the emptiness after sleep
It shall only make you weep

Go to sleep my darling
Close your eyes my precious
Let the problems of the day
Slip far far away...
