Silent Sleep
To thee my love, a song I write
To you who doth shine so bright
Like a star in the sky
Or the full moon as dawn is nigh
Sleeping peacefully on the ground
But dreaming higher than the sound
Of the trees, rustling in the wind
Their own little message, to me do send
As one night you will wake
Please today, for my sake
That in heaven may we next, not meet
As holding back tears, is not a simple feat
