lyrics

This strange bed is giving me strange dreams
This strange bed is giving me strange dreams

Dreamt I overheard
What the Sun said to the Moon
Come softly to my wake
And i'll some softly to you

Dreamt I held my son
That an angel brought to me
Took one look at his eyes
And started to cry
My boy was blind

This strange bed is giving me strange dreams
And they're staying with me almost mockingly

They take me back to when I was young
When all I wanted was to belong
To all the friends that I thought would last
Makes me laugh now I think about it
But these strange dreams
Have me thinking some strange things

That angel turned to me and said …

Time is all that is
What will be will be
Know your boy isn't blind
He just has not learned to see
You must teach him to see
You will teach him how he is to be

This strange bed is giving me strange dreams
This strange bed is giving me strange dreams

Dreamt i overheard
What the sun said to the moon
Come softly to my wake
And i'll some softly to you
