Lyrics

Sleep

[Verse 1]

Good to watch you sleep at night

Hushing all your life

Nice to have you near to me

Good to feel your sighs

[Chorus]

But one of these days

You're sure to be gone

And I'll have to carry on

Without you

[Verse 2]

It's nice to watch you sleep so deep

Damp and gentle there

And I'd almost call you baby now

Lick and smell your hair

[Chorus]

But how can I trust?

You're really in love

And I'll have to carry on

Without you

[Verse 3]

So shut off your mind and sleep, my love

Drifting bless and dream

Tomorrow is too near, my doll

Tell me where you've been

[Chorus]

'Cause one of these days

You're sure to be gone

And I'll have to carry on

Without you

[Outro]

Without you
