I lay down to rest my head My soul to keep the night I dread It's no dream Slumber comes as darkness falls And shadows dance across my walls It's no dream But I never sleep alone My dreams become so real to me I unplug the phone While the night is young Catch me I'm falling down again I know it's a dream but just the same There's a face before my eyes Are closed but I can't recognise The danger there Slumber comes as darkness falls And shadows dance across my walls It's no dream
