Tears without a past, hold their hand Shiny and unhaunted, close your eyes Ears to your heartbeat, eyes to your soul An angel drifts to heaven, peaceful when they know There are stars in the deep, deep dark (The hours children sleep) On they shine so warm, so kind (The hours children sleep) Dreaming hearts beating in the dark (The hours children sleep) Fingers tickle spirits, laugh with them Smile waxes crescent, then gone again Ears to your heartbeat, eyes to your soul An angel drifts to heaven, peaceful when they know There are stars in the deep, deep dark (The hours children sleep) On they shine so warm, so kind (The hours children sleep) Dreaming hearts beating in the dark (The hours children sleep) Have you come, dear shadow? To join us beneath the blue light The smallest stage awaits your embrace, set that spark ablaze, set their heart at ease, the hours children sleep Ears to your heartbeat, eyes to your soul An angel drifts to heaven, peaceful when they know There are stars in the deep, deep dark (The hours children sleep) On they shine so warm, so kind (The hours children sleep) Dreaming hearts beating in the dark (The hours children sleep) On they shine so warm, so kind (The hours children sleep) Dreaming hearts beating in the dark (The hours children sleep)
