When you sleep

The sun has left and the day has turned to night.
Rest your head upon the pillow.
The moon’s tender shine gives peace to your mind,
So now close your eyes and sleep.

This day was like few, with battles of words.
I know that they’re haunting your mind
But this day will fade away and the pain
Will someday become your sword

The night is dark and deep
And so quiet when you go to sleep.
The dreams might be sweet or they might turn out cruel
But I will watch over you when you sleep.

The sun has left and the day has turned to night
Rest you head upon the pillow
The moon’s tender shine
Gives peace to your mind
So now close your eyes
And I will watch over you when you sleep.
