Plea for a Good Night's Rest - Devon Sproule[00:00:00]

There are thick stars up above[00:00:13]

Where the trees part themselves[00:00:17]

Thick dust among many[00:00:22]

Corks lined up on the shelf[00:00:25]

There are bats in the attic we share[00:00:28]

We share[00:00:34]

There is smoke to kill mosquitoes[00:00:42]

Waiting just above to drink our blood[00:00:46]

And gas in the lamp that we light[00:00:50]

When the sun goes down[00:00:52]

My love wakes shaking with nightmare[00:00:55]

And the night air pulls in close around[00:01:02]

Come revenant come come ye gentle host[00:01:10]

To my patient hip and across our sleeping coasts[00:01:17]

Lay down your mantle shot through with gold[00:01:24]

That we may lie again here in sweet repose[00:01:30]

Rest your arms down around your oars now[00:01:54]

And hear how the night continues on alive and well[00:01:59]

When how rare the bird how still the wind[00:02:07]

And we still within it sigh and shift and turn[00:02:13]

Saying[00:02:21]

Sleep she comes to steal the ones who[00:02:22]

Fill their glass and leave the rest[00:02:26]

Whose teeth get brushed who eat enough[00:02:29]

And who know how to treat their friends[00:02:32]

How long this night seems with[00:02:37]

No sign of a bright dream to guide us toward the day[00:02:42]

Guide us toward the day[00:02:56]

Come revenant come come ye gentle host[00:03:04]

To my patient hip and across our sleeping coasts[00:03:10]

Lay down your mantle shot through with gold[00:03:18]

That we may lie again here in sweet repose[00:03:24]

In sweet[00:03:32]
