This song made me cry for the first time in years today. The lyrics are so beautiful. It's about human connection. I'm a therapist, and a session with a client today was so similar to my own experience that it really affected me. I always tell people that the bravest thing you can do is to sit there with your feelings and look it in the face. This song made me do that today.
Like many, this song spoke to me while watching The Holdovers. Made me think of watching my mother take her last breath and knowing she is in peace. It touches me very deeply. Beautifully simple and honest.
Let me sleep In the slumber of the morning There’s nowhere I need to be And my dreams are still calling Lay your troubles on the ground No need to worry about them now Daylight shaking through the trees Do not disturb me, let me be And if you need a place a land Or come down when you are weary No more clouds to put away In the slumber of the morning Keep me with you on the ground All of my worries behind me now Daylight shaking through the trees Do not disturb me, let me be Let me sleep In the slumber of tomorrow There’s nowhere we need to be That will not be there after Keep me with you on the ground All of my worries behind me now And be sure to wake me when Eternity begins
Damien is truly a master at crafting human emotion. He'll make you feel things you didn't know you had lurking just outside the chatter. Won't a quiet heart open the door to something beautiful?
for me your singing is the only true sound of music. A voice and a guitar, I need to find your album. I am a recluse, but I love music and I love your voice. I also found you in tumbledown, and thought the best part of the movie was your music.
This song was part of the soundtrack for The Holdovers - tremendous movie and incredibly appointed music
Agree, well put.
Tremendous movie, absolutely agree!
How I was introduced to this piece of music, so glad that I watched it, and the movie is pretty good as well.👌
Holdovers brought me here, I can’t stop listening to this song.

Yes I think it is a song about death and the peace it brings.
When I listen to these lyrics I can hear my animals I’ve lost in the past.
You know what, Justin? When you listen to these lyrics, your animals hear you, too. I hope our little guys are playing together.
I really feel this is a song about dying.
Let me sleep
In the slumber of the morning
There’s nowhere I need to be
And my dreams are still calling
Lay your troubles on the ground
No need to worry about them now
Daylight shaking through the trees
Do not disturb me, let me be
And if you need a place a land
Or come down when you are weary
No more clouds to put away
In the slumber of the morning
Keep me with you on the ground
All of my worries behind me now
Daylight shaking through the trees
Do not disturb me, let me be
Let me sleep
In the slumber of tomorrow
There’s nowhere we need to be
That will not be there after
Keep me with you on the ground
All of my worries behind me now
And be sure to wake me when
Eternity begins
That hits the soul , excellent song and performance
He nailed this one tbh
I just can't stop listening to this song...
Same.

Same here.

I heard this song in tumbledown such a really nice movie and really really nice song
This song is also in The Holdovers which is a masterpiece.
@TheTheDW saw it in twice during the holidays. Easily the best movie I saw all year and reminded me in so many ways of my own life, young and old.
Soothing, everything is right. Takes me to the late 60's era.
How beautifully and gracefully he sings .... Its effortless
It appears effortless. I'm sure it isn't always.
I love this song!! I love you Dad!!! I miss you so much and the hole in my heart will never heal!!!
...when eternity begins
He’s such a great singer/songwriter- I listen to him to him more and more
Beautiful song and excellent performance. Heard in THE HOLDOVERS. Can't wait to listen to more of his music.
Such an underrated/under appreciated artist and song! It stopped me dead in my tracks when I first heard it a few weeks ago!
What a wonderful wonderful musician!!!!
wow, thanks for sharing. The new album is breaktaking as was his gig in London on Monday
He's a great Artist, no doubts! Just bravo for him! 👏💙

My grandfather passed away this week after a brief but brutal illness. This song has been like a balm to my broken heart. Thank you, Damien
Freaking voodoo magic man ❤
Beautiful song. ( reminds me of Nick Drake )
Absolutely, what came to my mind too
Here from tumbledown
Looks like a cross between Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg
And mix in some Ray from Trailer Park Boys ..
