The last lullaby

Over the horizon there lies a little place
a place of refuge for everyone
no one ventures in their weary days
though they know thats where it ends

Under the sea far down below earth
theres lies a place for everyone
never swam so deep, never lurked
but they know thats where peace is lent

Come now see this, I dont know where its gone
but then i know its somewhere we oughtta go
till i wake up dont shake me of this dream
i just want to know whats in store


Over the hills hidden right behind
lurks the danger of unending sleep
never knew that it could be so kind
where the neverending bridge bends

Out in the open away from the sight
there is a place next to the sun
where things are seamless and time seems like light
where all the saved energy is pent

Come now see this, is that a bird or a plane
yet i know that its not as obvious as it seems
dont wake me up, is this the place to be
is it what we all always see in our dreams


How do i know when i reach this place
is there a landmark i can see
is there any map you could trace
to this place where im meant to be

Right next to me, there is a little place
i step into when i know im there
when i reach the end of this chase
it lies close to me, all God sent

Come now see this i have already reached
i can see what they all meant this to be
its pretty and surrounded by magnificent sights
a place of escape an a place to flee

Come now see this, im as happy as can be
while i lay down and heave a sigh
come now talk to me, sing me a lullaby
this peace is empty when ur not here to say goodbye
