Sleeping Beauty
Shusaku Uchiyama Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sleep, my love, as the trees above protect you from the dark.
A great river will watch you as you dream until dawn.
Sleep my love, close your eyes and when you´ve awaken,
the new day will bring to you a bright new world.

Sleep my love as the birds above do rest their weary wings
Let the rain play a gentle song to help your dreams sing.
Sleep my love close your eyes and when you awaken
The new day will bring to you a bright new world

Ever so gently hear my voice
Ever so softly feel my touch




Always so gently I walk
So go to see my love.
