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
Ah, 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?
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
Why should I hope to make it through?
'Cause if you sleep, I'll sleep too
Gleaming cars and covered faces
Teary eyes in hallowed places
Grass and granite stone
No one's been more all alone
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
Why should I hope to make it through?
'Cause if you sleep, I'll sleep too
If you sleep, if you sleep
If you sleep, I'll sleep too
