Lay Me Down To Dream




The Dove
by Brian Crain


Lay Me Down to Dream


Lay me down to dream, I said
And looked deep into your eyes
I am so tired and weary now
I need some lullabies.

Lay me down to dream, my love
My days have been so long
I need to rest upon your chest
I need to hear your song.

Lay me down to dream, I plead
My dreams have flown away
I cannot think or recall them
I don't know how to make them stay. 

But there within your gentle hands
And in your tender touch
Is every dream I've ever had
And all I love so much.

Pull me close there in your arms
And think of what I've said
Then when I'm calm, then lay your hands
Upon my weary head.

And transfer every dream in you
That you can give or spare
And send me to that land of dreams
Where I can meet you there.

I do not know the way, my love
I can't find it on my own
Bestow on me that precious gift
Known to yourself, alone.

I've traveled many miles, you know
On a recent treacherous route
And found myself in perilous places
With no one to lead me out.

But there were angels and there was you
And the good Lord up above
And He blessed me with a road map back
And a light made out of love.

And I've come back from darkest dark
With a new mission, it does seem
But I need you now to sing me to sleep
And lay me down to dream.
