The Sleepers
Kurt Elling

I wander all night in my vision

Stepping with light feet, swiftly and noiselessly stepping

And stopping, bending with opens arms

Over the shadows, I'm sleepers

Wandering and confused, lost to myself

Feel assorted contradictory posing

Gazing, branding and distorting

How solemn they look there stretched and still

How quite they breath, the little children in their cradles

The married couple sleeps soundly in their bed

He with his palm on the hip of his wife

And she with her palm on the hip of the husband

The sisters sleep lovingly side by side in their bed

The men sleep lovingly side by side in beds

And the mother sleeps with her little child carefully wrapped

The sleepers are very beautiful as they lie enclosed

They flow hand in hand over the highest, from east to west

As they lie, as they lie, ooh, ooh, ooh
