Let me rest in the angels of your smile Oh let me go let me wander in thought Let me rest in the grace I have sought
So hold me, statue-bare and full of grace The ways wind, the birds call And long-autumn grins And on my brow And in my heart The night is early And from the woods And thinning gardens Lies, softly whispering
A brazen face, a lean belly A familiar to all…
Oh let me go, let me dream for a while Let rest in the angels of your smile Oh let me go let me wander in thought Let me rest in the grace I have sought Oh let me go let me drown in my dreams Is this world as sad as it seems? Oh let me go let me drown in my dreams Is this life as sad as it seems?
I’ve walked in this sunlight I’ve traveled long-night I’ve waited for god to reveal I’ve walked in this sunlight I’ve traveled long-night I’ve felt all that god does conceal And now I must go to the darkness below For the Pale Hand beckons to me…
Oh let me drown in my dreams… Is this world as sad as it seems?
