Darkly Sly
GANESH SESHADRI
Sleep is full of ecstasies
Ever out of reach to me, my fingers reach and say
Won't you stay one minute more
Tell me what your name is and what are we here for
Dreams cast me in hazy scenes
Where I have no words to say, and life unfolds around me
Won't you lay with me a year
Show me what your face is, I cannot see from here
Darkly sly is purity
Innocently lying to me, weaving its spell
Always faithless in the end
Ungentle friend, sending me to hell
