Dreamless Slumbers
words & music by Lisa Cannon

Dreamless slumbers, evening falls
down under, I say I do
I say these words and pray
They've fallen on your ears today
Like none other that you've heard
So wipe away your tears
If I say these words to let go all
of your sorrow
It's like a cloud vanished away
For better things to start this day
And leave old footprints on sands
In disappearing tides
Lay your head on the ledge of my shoulder
Under the countless stars that shine
in all their numbers
Dreamless slumbers dream away
Dreamless slumbers, evening falls
down under, I say I do
It takes a wind to hurt this way
Cutting 'gainst the chaff and grain
Like none other that you've felt
And like no other will
Lay your head on the ledge of my shoulder
Under the countless stars that shine
in all their numbers
Dreamless slumbers dream away
Dreamless slumbers, evening falls
down under, I say I do
I say these words and pray
They've fallen on your ears today
Like none other that you've heard
Dreamless slumbers, evening falls
down under, I say I do
I say I forgive you
