Cabrel Francis
From One Shadow to Another
Sleeping Standing
I had to sleep standing up,
Not a word, not a gesture,
The man who could save love
He left without leaving an address.
Somewhere in the sky,
I'm waiting for news,
But the stars are blurry.
It's falling as much rain
As all the love he deserves,
The man who ran after Lucie
He left a little quickly.
In the bad fables,
In the winds of sand,
The devil is everywhere.
I had to sleep standing up.
..Sleep standing up.
br/>It's a crazy story,
All this emptiness that you leave,
The man who could save love
Has left without leaving an address.
In the sky somewhere, hard to see,
When you're knocked out standing...
Millions of lights,
Clinging to the barriers,
Of this time which spoils everything,
Like signals to tell him,
That there are already rivers,
In the middle of the deserts,
And fields of stones,
And that we keep for him above all,
And that we keep for him above all,
His place in the middle of us,
..In the middle of us...
Right in our midst,
For all the time we have left,
The man who could save love
Is gone without leaving address.
From the depths of the sky,
To the walls of hotels,
The stars are blurred.
I had to sleep standing up.
..Sleeping standing up...
I had to sleep standing up.
..Sleeping standing up...
I had to sleep!
. .Stand up...
