Pink Floyd - A Pillow Of Winds (Waters, Gilmour)
E(addF#) F#m/E Emaj7
F#m/E B(addE) Emaj7
A cloud of eiderdown draws around me softening the sound.
Bm/E
Sleepy time when I lie with my love by my side, and she's breathing low.
E(addF#)
And the candle dies.
E(addF#)
When night comes down, you lock the door.
The book falls to the floor.
As darkness falls and waves roll by, the seasons change.
The wind is warm.
Now wakes the owl. Now sleeps the swan.
Behold a dream, the dream is gone.
Green fields, a cold rain is falling in a golden dawn.
F#m/E B(addE) Emaj7
And deep beneath the ground the early morning sounds and I______ go down.
Bm/E
Sleeping time when I lie with my love by my side and she's breathing low.
And I rise like a bird in the haze when the first rays touch the sky.
E(addF#) F#m/E Emaj7 Bm/E
And the night winds die.

| However, one lyric on the CD booklet reads: "SLEEPING time, when I lie..." | |

| This is BY FAR my favorite Pink Floyd Song of ALL TIME!! It's beautiful and breath-taking and just an amazing amazing song. I do think this song is about a dream and the different stages of night, but I also think it's about being intimate and enjoying the company of your love. Just a great song that will always relax me and take me away. | |

| No. You're wrong. It IS "Sleepy time, when I lie". It says in the CD booklet. | |

| A GORGEOUS song - I fall to sleep by it (and 'Echoes') almost nightly. I think it's simply a nice slice of cozy life, someplace we'd all like to be or have been - in a beautiful world you've conjured up in your head because you're in love. The world is magical and sensual and sleepy. It's an idealistic little painting of how perfect the world seems at that moment when you're happy. It's almost like a snapshot of contentment. 'Meddle' is a great album. | |

| Not just this song, but the entire album Meddle is great! The best Floyd album in my opinion. Makes more sence while on shrooms tho. | |

| This song is truly one of the most beautiful songs, and for a long time I didn;t give it the credit it deserved simply because it was on the same album as Echoes (same for most of the songs on the album). I am not sure exactly what it is about, but it fits in perfectly on Meddle (my favorite album). It was this song, once I finally realized how good it was, that pushed Meddle above Wish You Were Here. 5/5 | |

| i do adore this song most of all on the Meddle album. although echoes is wonderfully written, this song is more instrumentally beautiful. listening to this song reminds me of that wonderful time right before you go to sleep with the person you love right next to you. a complete release of stress from the mind. i love you pink floyd | |
