Oh my sleeping girl
It's been so long since I've seen you last
It seems that every time
I need you the most
You are lost between sheets
Oh what a curse
That you might dream
As I percieve I the world
And as I snore
You belong to the waking
To love one so much
Yet so rarely make contact
Only crossing paths on the edges of our exhaustions
Still I keep you so close at hand
For if ever there was one
That made me feel a man it was
You
My daughter of the stars
Child of Morpheus
All sleep and
All beauty
Oh my sleeping girl
What a shame it would be to the breath of the night
Were you not at rest
For her to see
Oh my sleeping girl
Though I pray to you
Might my prayers fall on deaf ears
Or do they intermingle with your dreams
To chatter with your characters
Might you wake up in the morning
And know me
By the willowy words I left
In your yesterdays
Oh my girl
