A dream

Sunshine, shine once more
before the night comes on;
see me through till darkness goes, 
then give way to the dawn.

Sunshine shining through the grass, 
leaves giving me solid shade;
no sign of all that was,
just things that Nature made.

Sitting on a cotton cloud, 
breathing in the life of day, 
sitting back thinking out loud, 
with nobody to hear you say —

River, flow to Never-never, 
breeze, take me through the trees, 
flower, lover, roll me over, 
moonbeam, make me a dream
