Story Behind The Song
Had the music for years. Woke up one morning with the lyrics in my head - the morning after a particularly exhilrating
gig the night before.

A song of consolation and a promise of a respite after a struggle. Psychedelic dreamy guitars accompany a

Lyrics
SOON YOU?LL BE SLEEPING
I know that you?re tired of this rocking
And you can?t row this boat anymore
But soon you?ll be sleeping
Soon you?ll be sleeping
Soon you?ll be sleeping
On the shore
This mist that kisses your lost cheek now
And beacon stars
Have you forgotten what they?re for
Cause soon you?ll be sleeping
Soon you?ll be sleeping
Soon you?ll be sleeping
On the shore
And was it out of the blue
Or did I dream you
Like you dreamed me
And was it out of the blue
Or did I dream you
Like you dreamed me
Any fool could see
We were meant to be
Cause soon you?ll be sleeping
Soon you?ll be sleeping
Soon you?ll be sleeping
On the shore
On the shore
On the shore
On the shore
repeat and fade
