Don't Go Back to Sleep

The breeze

At dawn

Has secrets to tell you

You must ask for what you really want

Don’t go back to sleep

People are going back and forth

Across the doorsill

Where the two worlds meet

The door is round

Wide open

Don’t go back to sleep

The world is round

And wide

Open

The world is round

And wide

Open

The world is round

And wide

Open

I am sweet sleep

After small waves

Go back on themselves

Wash away, wash away

I am attention

I am that constant hum

I’m the moon that hangs around you

Til silence come, til silence come
