In his small cabin in Walden Wood (near Concord, Massachusetts), on a snowy winter's night in 1846, Henry David Thoreau eases himself into slumber mulling over the lives of those who had lived in the woods before him. This song is one of many that Dillon Bustin created for the musical theater work, "Songs from Walden Pond", a cycle of spoken word and songs based on Thoreau's iconic literary work, "Walden". Many of the lyrics are adapted from Thoreau's own words. Grey created the musical arrangements for their production in which I Lull Myself Asleep combines Dillon's voice, cello, French horn, Irish flute, and piano. Cindy asked Grey to please re-arrange this song for the two of them.
