Silvery Sleep lyrics

by Walter Egan and Christie McVie



Who can say what moves my hand, who can see the things I`ve planned?

All is not as it should be, dealing with reality,

And it comes when nighttime falls,

Like a voice the darkness calls.



Sometimes I feel I lose my place, when pressure blinds me like a storm,

And I`m resigning from this race, I need the night to keep me warm,

In darkness, forever deep, forever deep in Silvery Sleep.



Once upon a time a king, full of promise, full of spring,

Fool at heart, and fooled by pride, foolishly he let love die,

So the king and kingdom falls,

Like a voice the darkness calls.



Can you say what moves my hand, can you see the things I`ve planned?

All is not the way it seems, time has taken all my dreams,

Like a friend the curtain falls, like a voice the darkness calls.
