Sleep


And now here comes the final step On this path that we have walked The path that we have walked with friends Where we loved, and laughed, and talked I would like to take a nap For the journey has been long And sleep in my final resting place The place where i belong My friends will keep on walking Maybe slower than before Because an old friend has decided To go into sleeps everlasting door The door we all go through Some sooner than they should It seems that I will be one of them Though I thought I never would "Don't go" they all will yell But I still just want to go Until I hear that one voice That helps me to say no The voice I can't explain Tells me it's ok He says that everything's alright All I have to do is pray I pray and pray and pray again And found the voice was right I was so happy cause then I saw That everything WAS just right And so now I live my life Without ever thinking about sleep I also figured out that day That His love runs really deep
