Breath of Life
I want your gigantic hands over my eyes,
I want the sleep of peace,
I want my rest...
Makes me sleep.
Don't let me sleep
I feel uneasy,
be carried away by thoughts
Let me get away from you.
I want to feel a deep sleep,
Who will take me with winged wings to meet you.
A deep sleep that I have the calm I need,
And what I'm looking for.
Sleep... I want the sleep of peace,
I want my rest.
You make me sleep, and you only wake me up
When the dawn of dawn is coming.
At home, early morning. March 1990
