Softer Ground

Lay me down in fields of hay
make the winds to blow dreams dusty
Pour a tall glass Milky Way
have I ever been so lucky?
Tell me a story
and make it bed time
I'm ready to lay myself down
on softer ground

Is this the land
where dreams come true
under skies as big as prayers?
Tap three times those ruby shoes
we'll climb the starry stairs
I'll tell you a story
and I'll make it bed time
I'm ready to lay myself down
on softer ground

Ready to lay myself down
Ready to lay myself down
Lay myself down
On your softer ground

Step back
