Sleep

Sleep Darkness has covered the land Like a fuzzy, warm cover The darkness will now demand Sleep. In our dreams we may discover Other lives we live unknown by day Lives of renown or lives of folly We may be straight, we may be gay Maybe we're king or jester by golly We could live in a land made of sand Then again we could live under the sea We could even a great army command Or we could embody a whale or a flea Lives we could have endless in number But conscious of the one in the day Finding other lives in our slumber To me is a parallel life bouquet A bouquet of lives tied with a ribbon What a wondrous image to ponder Having names like Sampson or even Fitzgibbon Makes the mind endlessly wander This is why sleep is important , you see In sleep there is much to discover We can fly high in the sky or under the sea When we're under the dark night cover.
