When you're slipping into sleep, that's the time to unwind Sinking down into the deep, that's the time of no time When you're slipping into sleep All the sounds around you seem to have a new meaning Leave your body behind you with a different feeling When you're slipping into sleep
The day is night, the night is day So please out the light as I slip away Up the wooden hills to Bedfordshire Up the wooden hills to Bedfordshire
When you're slipping into sleep, there's a world you will find That's all yours and you can keep, that's the only thing to keep When you're slipping into sleep All the sounds around you seem to have a new meaning Leave your body behind you with a different feeling When you're slipping into sleep
