Plea for a Good Night's Rest
There are thick stars up above Where the trees part themselves Thick dust among many Corks lined up on the shelf There are bats in the attic we share
There is smoke to kill mosquitoes Waiting just above to drink our blood And gas in the lamp that we light When the sun goes down
My love wakes shaking with nightmare And the night air pulls in close around
Come revenant, come, come ye gentle host, To my patient hip and across our sleeping coasts. Lay down your mantle, shot through with gold, That we may lie again, here in sweet repose.
Rest your arms down around your oars now 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 And hear how the night continues on alive and well. When how rare the bird, how still the wind! And we still within it sigh and shift and turn, Saying,
Sleep she comes to steal the ones who Fill their glass and leave the rest, Whose teeth get brushed, who eat enough, And who know how to treat their friends.
How long this night seems with No sign of a bright dream to guide us toward the day.
Come revenant, come, come ye gentle host. To my patient hip and across our sleeping coasts. Lay down your mantle, shot through with gold, That we may lie again, here in sweet repose.
