Sleep And Death Lyrics - Elis

Dreaming under willows 

Our cheeks caress the stars 

The faded night's brow inclines 

Sleep and death, the dark eagles 

Roaring for nights on end around our heads. 

The countenance of our white tombs 

Stares at us 

The countenance of our white tombs 

All the time 

REF 

Sleep and death, the dark eagles 

Roaring for nights on end around our heads. 

While we are walking under dark arcades 

And the shadows of dead angels play beside. 

Silent the winds decay 

On the lonesome hill 

The bleak walls Of the autumnal grove 

The countenance of our white tombs 

Stares at us 

The countenance of our white tombs 

All the time 

REF 

Sleep and death, the dark eagles 

Roaring for nights on end around our heads. 

While we are walking under dark arcades 

And the shadows of dead angels play beside. 

(O.Falk, P.Streit / S.Dnser)
