about

Recorded with the Gloria Darlings

lyrics

Sleep on, my love, sleep on
It's never good with you gone
And you only stay if you sleep through the day
My sleeping love, sleep on

Come ride this train with me
We'll see the north country
And all day we'll lie like when we die
Come ride this train with me

Goodbye to father and mom
Three thousand miles from home
When I was born, I was already grown
They know not where I roam

I never sleep at night
I gotta wait until it's light
I lie awake and weep, and I never sleep
I cannot sleep at night

There is a connecting thread of spirituality, healing and liberation weaving through her work.
