Sound Sleep
I pray that
No.........
I beg that
The next time I close my eyes to sleep
Let me sleep forever
The next time dreams hold me captive
Let them not be dreams of you
Let them bring me tranquility
Let them lock me tight in the cell of peace
Let them chain me up with affection
Let them sweep me off my feat to a land yonder
To a land of just me and me
Where I'll be far and away from these haunting thoughts
Yes
Am on bended knees,
Begging
That the next time my eyes shut
All that feels and sounds real
Will be nothing but mere imaginations
