| The evening hangs beneath the moon | |
| A silver thread on darkened dune | |
| With closing eyes and resting head | |
| Upon my pillow, safe in bed | |
| A thousand pictures fill my head | |
| I cannot sleep my minds a flight | |
| And yet my limbs seem made of lead | |
| If there are noises in the night | |
| A frighting shadow, flickering light | |
| Then I surrender unto sleep | |
| Where clouds of dreams give second sight | |
| Of flying wings and soaring leap | |
| As I surrender unto sleep | |
| As I surrender unto sleep |
