Neath blankets 'mongst the pillows
I listen to the rain
as it lashes 'gainst the window
natures violent refrain
I smile to myself
pull up the covers, snuggle down
this storm she cannot reach me
for sanctuary I've found
The wind now joins the chorus
humming tunes across the vent
a sad and sombre melody
conveys the earths lament
Drifting tween the planes
of consciousness and sleep
i find myself pursuing
the dreams that once so deep
I close my eyes for one last time
and slowly drift away
'til this nights storm has passed me by
and I'm awakened by the day.

The wind now joins the chorus
humming tunes across the vent
a sad and sombre melody

Drifting tween the planes

i find myself pursuing
the dreams that once so deep
I close my eyes for one last time
and slowly drift away
'til this nights storm has passed me by
and I'm awakened by the day.
