In 10-1-1994 at Bridge School Benefit, Pearl Jam played their b-side rarity "Let Me Sleep."Part 18 of the Touring Lost Dogs series. A beautiful song about childhood memories of Christmas.

This is the only time the song has been played live.

    Thanks for the vid Thrasher. The song is actually about what Christmas is like for a homeless person though. There is also a version of Ed and Mike doing it in Italy in 2006 in PJ20, although it is not in front of a crowd.

    Cold wind blows on the soles of my feet

    Heaven knows nothing of me

    I'm lost nowhere to go

    Oh when I was a kid oh how magic it seemed

    Oh please let me sleep it's Christmas time

    Flowered winds was where I lived

    Thought you burned not froze for your sins

    Oh I'm so tired and cold

    Oh when I was a kid oh how magic it seemed

    Oh please let me sleep it's Christmas time

    Oh oh when I was a kid oh how magic it seemed

    Oh please let me sleep it's Christmas time

    Oh oh when I if I was a kid oh how magic it seemed

    Oh please let me dream it's Christmas time ...


    Actually, this is a good reminder about the importance of volunteering at the many homeless shelters throughout the country.
