about

For Maria and her enchanted island heritage in Sri Lanka.

lyrics

Slumber sweetly ‘til dawn.
Take away my heart forever.
Every breath, I adore.
Safe within these walls forever.

Dreams so sweetly chosen,
dance across your mind.
Colours and tapestries woven, And plays yet unspoken.
Cradle your time in a world of your own special making.

Watching you sleep, brings a smile to my face.
The place where I want to be.
Watching you breathe – seems like heaven to me.

Vibrant zebras in colours fluorescent.
they’re sliding down chutes into Caversham over the Thames.
Playing guitar while you’re herding up elephants ...
Soft serenading will get them to fall into line, every time.

Strange how these things go.
Holding on to the undertow.
Images that ebb and flow –
you can safely change them to a place you know.

Watching the sunrise come over Negombo
and flying a red kite at daybreak on Galle Face Green.
What a dream! Rowing at Henley with Sachin Tendulkar,
on water that sparkles yet threatens to tow you away. Every day.

Strange how these things go.
Holding on to the undertow.
Images that ebb and flow –
you can safely change them to a place you know.

Softly wake in your arms.
Lost within your eyes forever.
Every smile is a charm ...
melts my heart now and forever.

Where do travels take you,
under still of night?
Down to your magical island,
your surreal asylum,
softly caressed by the people who love you the deepest.

When you wake ...
There’s no place I’d rather be.
See you smile ...
Seems like heaven to me.
When you wake ...
There’s no place I’d rather be.
See you smile ...
Seems like heaven to me.
Slumber sweetly ...
