Lyric If You Sleep
Figure of divine perfection
No one s loved with more affection
Soul to soul we ve breathed
Oh, I won t let The Fates succeed
Worried hours of contemplation
Whispered bits of conversation
Unaffected orderlies
Disinfected rooms and hallways
And if you sleep, you sleep with God
And if I cry, it s for my heart
Why should I hope to make it through?
Cause if you sleep, I ll sleep, too
Jagged thorns and pretty petals
Butterflies and stinging nettles
Sunny days and nights of blackness
But where s the joy to cure my sadness?
(Chorus)
Gleaming cars and covered faces
Teary eyes in hallowed places
Grass and granite stone
No one s been more all alone
(Chorus)
No one s loved with more affection
Soul to soul we ve breathed
Oh, I won t let The Fates succeed
Worried hours of contemplation
Whispered bits of conversation
Unaffected orderlies
Disinfected rooms and hallways
And if you sleep, you sleep with God
And if I cry, it s for my heart
Why should I hope to make it through?
Cause if you sleep, I ll sleep, too
Jagged thorns and pretty petals
Butterflies and stinging nettles
Sunny days and nights of blackness
But where s the joy to cure my sadness?
(Chorus)
Gleaming cars and covered faces
Teary eyes in hallowed places
Grass and granite stone
No one s been more all alone
(Chorus)
