based on my setting of the original poem by Nevil Frenkiel (from his play Barabbas)
based on the Christmas theme of the mother singing to her baby Jesus
Sometimes when you fall asleep,
it seems you take me with you
deep into a peaceful land
far from all the heartache;
that you'll understand one day,
you will understand one day
the quiet way
quiet way you move me
quiet way
quiet way you move me.
Sometimes when you fall asleep
it seems you take me with you,
deep into a peaceful land
far from all the heart ache.
I find myself complete;
I find myself repeating a prayer
and smiling at the sky:
the quiet way you move me
even when you cry.
Now within your drowsy eyes
I can see why the world has lost
all its wonders.
A new dream is rising,
impatient to begin.
A new dream is rising
impatient to begin.
And when the dream is through,
your hungry feelings will find me.
My comfort is you.
My comfort is you.
The quiet way
quiet way you move me
quiet way
quiet way you move me
