When I close my eyes and I dream

I′m looking at a white horse in the field

Standing by you old friend, grazing on the cloverAnd you, you're sitting on the fence, until you call me over

Why does it always have to end

Before we have the chance to talk again?

I′m still looking out for you

Rest your head on me

Oh please, don't be afraid of the things you need

Rain will fall outside these walls

But you can close your eyes and sleep

Well my life's been like a freight train

Barreling through the snow

Taking me to places where I don′t want to go

Is it so insane to make my escape if there′s a way?

'Cause now that I′m clean out of my mind

It's easier to make my way to yours

I′ll set up my camp on the ground at the edge of your dream

Have myself a look around and see what you see

Rest your head on me

Oh please don't be afraid of the things you need

Rain will fall outside these walls

But you can close your eyes and sleep

I will sing you lullabies all night

And you can cry if you want

Let your tears fall into the pond

We′ll be walking in that field before too long

Blue mountain in the distance

And a valley too

A breathless bit of sunset just coming into view

I'm following the tracks of your wheels

They tell me what you've been through

I can see those deep ruts, how your days have run you rough

Though your sturdy iron soul′s been holding you up

Sometimes it′s just not enough

You need to let the lion bow to the dove

So won't you rest your head on me

Oh please don′t be afraid of the things you need

Rain will fall outside these walls

But you can close your eyes and sleep

I will sing you lullabies all night

And you can cry if you want

Let your tears fall into the pond

We'll be walking in that field come the dawn

Yes my friend, rest your head on me

Oh please don′t be afraid

You can dream

I'll be here dreaming with you
