about

A lullaby for sleepy adults.

lyrics

SLEEP WITH ME ©2009 Jay Spears Music ASCAP

Come, set sail beside me on the silver sea of sleep.
We'll set a course for distant shores where valiant dolphins leap.
Our sail will be this handmade quilt; the evening star our leader;
The prow this headboard that I built of dreamy-scented cedar.

Sleep with me, dream with me, sleep with me.

Let's leave our clothes and cares and woes behind us on the dock;
No need for daytime's prudent masks or workday's nagging clock.
We'll slip beneath the surface of our secret sea of sleep,
And mingle with the sleek fantastic creatures of the deep.

Sleep with me, dream with me, sleep with me.

And should some shrieking siren or some savage silent shark,
Sea-serpent, or cruel corsair captain fright us in the dark,
Leviathan the mighty will our quiet course defend;
We'll huddle close, and Neptune, lord of all, our rest attend.

Where the jeweled corals bloom, in innocence we'll slumber
Where galleons rest with long-lost chests of doubloons beyond number.
We cast off at eleven, on silent sails we'll soar,
To make landfall at seven on tomorrow's misty shore.

Sleep with me, dream with me, sleep with me.
