Sweet Sleep Lyrics

Waiting for sleep to arrive

Turning my head to the night outside

The window

Echos of light in the glass

Pulled by the car wheels that drone as they pass

On drifting

Reading the shadows that fall on my walls

Tracing my thoughts with a whisper

Tune into sounds of the night as she calls

Lose track of time as it lingers

Sleep, sweet sleep you've come to me

All I need is your company

Dream, sweet dream you lead the way

Spilling into my day

Blink between two planes of mind

Coming tangled and dazed as I lay on my side

Breathing slowly

Hearing the pipes as they play in my wall

Turning my mind with a feeling

Bending each sense to the will of a thought

Find faces in grains on the ceiling

Sleep, sweet sleep, controlling me

Loosening your hold on me

Dream, sweet dream, you're fleeting now

Spilling into my day

Peek one eye open, the morning floods in

With light rinsing dreams from the moment

Scatter like sand, when the current rolls in

Dreading the pull of morning

Dreading the pull of…

Sleep, sweet sleep, you've disappeared

All I wanted was to hold you near

Dream, sweet dream, you've gone astray

Abandoning me for the day
