Silver Sand 🌙 The Sandman Song | Velvet Moon Music

Velvet IS the Sandman. 🌙✨ Every night she walks the rooftops with two pockets — silver sand for the gentle, the lonely, and the kind… and ash for the cruel. What you dream was never in your hands. 🎧 Velvet Moon Halloween — the album, streaming now: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/vel... Midnight Matinee 🎬 — one spooky story-song, told after dark. LYRICS [Verse 1] When the last light leaves the window, And the streetlamps learn to hum, I rise up with the pale moon rising, And my quiet rounds begun. Bare feet on the frosted rooftops, A silver pouch at my side — I know every sleepless window, Every heart that cries at night. [Pre-Chorus] I lean in close and listen To the day that you've been through. Dreams are never given blindly, darling — Mine are measured out by you. [Chorus] So close your eyes, I'll pour the silver sand, Soft as snowfall from my hand. Sweet dreams for the gentle, for the lonely, for the kind — I leave a little moonlight in your mind. Close your eyes, I'll pour the silver sand… But what you dream was never in your hands. [Verse 2] For the widow at the kitchen table, I bring her love back young and near. For the child afraid of thunder, I make the storm sound far from here. But I've stood beside your pillow, You who never learned to care — Cruel hands leave a certain weather, And I answer what's been there. [Pre-Chorus] So if your sleep is full of shadows, And the dark feels overdue — Ask your daytime, not your dreamer. I just carry what is true. [Chorus] So close your eyes, I'll pour the silver sand, Soft as snowfall from my hand. Sweet dreams for the gentle, for the lonely, for the kind — I leave a little moonlight in your mind. Close your eyes, I'll pour the silver sand… But what you dream was never in your hands. [Bridge] Two pockets has my apron, love, And two kinds of sand I keep. One is silver, one is ash — And I know which one you'll sleep. Be gentle in the daylight, Be kind when no one sees… For I'll be on your rooftop, Deciding your dreams. [Final Chorus] So close your eyes, I'll pour the silver sand, Soft as snowfall from my hand. Sweet dreams for the gentle, for the lonely, for the kind — I leave a little moonlight in your mind. Close your eyes, I'll pour the silver sand… But what you dream was never in your hands. [Outro] Sleep now… sleep… Silver sand.
