Beyond Dreams

Sleep little one, so you may dream,
see the place there by the sea?
The wind blows and the water is cold
go to the place there by the sea.

The birds cry over your small head
near the place there by the sea;
You see the one you always dreamed of
standing at the place there by the sea.

You want to go for their outreached hand
to go to the place there by the sea
They are so close to you and yet to far
near that place there by the sea.

You lose sight of the person you want to be
at that place there by the sea
Grabbing for what can never be
crying at that place there by the sea

Don't you cry oh my little one
down at the place there by the sea
For I will hold you close once again
in that place there by the sea.
