The bent twig of darkness
Grows the petals of the morning; It shows to them the birds singing just behind the dawning. Come dip into the cloud cream lapping; I can't keep my hand on the plough Because it's dying. But I will lay me down with my arms round a rainbow, And I will lay me down to dream. Oh, will your magic Christmas tree be shining Gently all around? Climbing up these figures The sun is tugging at my shoulder. And, every step I take, I think my feet are getting older. I see the crystal dreams unfolding, I can't keep my eyes on the book because it's mouldring. But I will lay me down with my arms round a rainbow, And I will lay me down to dream. Oh, will your magic Christmas tree be shining Gently all around? |

> Certainly, the children have seen them,
In quiet places where the moss grows green. Colored, shells, jangle, together, The wind is cold, the year is old The trees whisper together, and bend in the wind, they lean... La la la la la, la la la, la la la... Oh, next week a monkey is coming to stay, Mmmm, mmm, mmm, If I was a witches hat, Sitting on her head like a paraffin stove, I'd fly away and be a bat, 'Cross the air, I would rove Step-ping like a tight-rope wal-ker Put-ting one foot af-ter ano-ther Wearing black cherries for rings |

Seasons they change while cold blood is raining
I have been waiting beyond the years Now over the skyline I see you're travelling Brothers from all time gathering here Come let us build the ship of the future In an ancient pattern that journeys far Come let us set sail for the always island Through seas of leaving to the summer stars Seasons they change but with gaze unchanging O deep eyed sisters is it you I see? Seeds of beauty ye bear within you Of unborn children glad and free Within your fingers the fates are spinning The sacred binding of the yellow grain Scattered we were when the long night was breaking But in the bright morning converse again. |

I paid for a plow, it was heavy as lead.
Tired in my body, I wished for a bed. When I lay claim to nothing, seems everything is mine. When I lay claim to nothing... Dust be diamonds, water be wine happy happy happy all the time time time.
