Great Lake Swimmers - Quiet Your Mind Lyrics

It's hard sometimes, I know
When you try to close your eyes
You put yourself into a dream
And waking so disguised
Sleeping and then dreaming
Means that you are truly free
It's the best thing that you can do
As far as I can see

Oh whoa quiet your mind
Oh whoa quiet your mind

In the country, in the foothills
Found you down in the fort
Finally found a vision
Vision of tomorrow
You win it so completely
When you don't even try
Set loose all your worries
Like doves into the sky

Oh whoa quiet your mind
Oh whoa quiet your mind

So now I'll sing a lullaby
And wrap it in a dream
To take the weight from your shoulders
And the pressure from your teeth
It must seem like a ghost sometimes
Eerie and from thin air
So take hold of this quiet song
That the night will find you there

Oh whoa quiet your mind
Oh whoa quiet your mind
Oh whoa quiet your mind
Oh whoa quiet your mind
