Oh, take me back to the velvet night,

Where peace was woven pure and tight.

Those hours held in simple grace,

With no regrets, no need to chase.

Before the tangled webs of thought,

When dreams were simple, unbesought,

And pillows held no secret cries,

Only the softest lullabies.

Take me back to tender years,

Before the haunt of hidden fears,

When stars above would kindly glow,

And let the restless mind let go.

Where every worry fled the scene,

And slumber rose, soft and serene.

I miss the hush, the childlike ease,

A silent drift upon night's breeze.

Now, thoughts unfold in endless scroll,

Whispers deep within the soul.

The mind, a maze, no rest in sight,

Bound tight, unraveling each night.

Take me back to softer lands,

Where calm would hold me by the hand,

And sleep was peace, and dreams were free,

Oh, take me back, take back that me.
