Tell me a tale And lull me to sleep I'll walk into the vale Of wonderland so deep Let me escape To gain upon my hope And let me through the gate Into the world of thought Sleep inducing phrases in your lullaby Tell me I am airborne, to fairyland I fly Sit at my bedside just one more time Stroke me down, give me peace of mind Rock me till I'm leaving reality behind Sleepy ideas Is giving me a drive My soothing fantasies The reason I survive Draw the Venetian blinds And hide what hurts to see We're running out of time Defined by you and me
