Sound asleep he dreams tonight
Holding a truck of red
Brave and strong, he’s a fire to fight
Safe in his own warm bed
               Safe in his own warm bed

The stars at night
They come and go
Bringing our dreams so sweet
Across the dark they ebb and flow
Praying one day we meet
To hold them tight beyond the night
Takes a will of steel and wings to fly

When life seems so far away
From that which we see in our sleep
We close our eyes and chance to dream
Finding new visions to keep

Sound asleep she dreams tonight
Holding her baby doll sweet
A family so close, a family so tight
Close near a fire for heat
                 Close near a fire for heat

The stars at night
They come and go
Bringing our dreams so sweet
Across the dark they ebb and flow
Praying one day we meet
To hold them tight beyond the night
Takes a will of steel and wings to fly

When life seems so far away
From that which we see in our sleep
We close our eyes and chance to dream
To find new visions to keep

Sound asleep he dreams tonight
Young and handsome and smart
A life that is perfect a life that is right
With a woman to share his heart
Now that she’s gone
He just can’t hold on
His eyes close forever in sleep
                       close forever in sleep

The stars at night
They come and go
Bringing our dreams so sweet
Across the dark they ebb and flow
Praying one day we meet
To hold them tight beyond the night
Takes a will of steel and wings to fly
a will of steel and wings to fly
