lyrics

Sleep, the night is good
On a red-pine bed of wood
Silken black, the sky
Streaming through your open mind

Sleep, the darkness says
Lost at sea inside your head
Ghost-white vapors pass
Starlit Asian waters oh-so vast

Floating in the open waters there
Bobbing about by the bedside
A delicate lotus flower fair
Floating in the mindless open air
Petals unfurl, by the bedside a girl
With a dark and slanted stare

Holly half-reply
Calling out through open eyes
Floating in a flower
Glowing like a meteor shower

Holly here we are
Tragic as a falling star
Together in a dream
Any minute now my alarm will start to scream

Floating in the open waters there
Bobbing about by the bedside
A delicate lotus flower fair
Floating in the mindless open air
Petals unfurl, an enchanted young girl
With a dark and slanted stare
