O Sleep, come for me, I will go quietly
where the roof doesn't leak in my heart
O Sleep, come for me
I'm a boat, sprung a leak
I'll hide and you'll seek a new start
For me until dawn, I'll be too gone
to care how grey the day is
The dreams that it chases away
they stay asleep
O Sleep, come for me
I will come willingly
like a leaf from a tree in October
O Sleep, come for me, I wait hopefully
I was drunk on a dream, now I'm sober
From now until dawn
it can't be too long for me
I count the hours
‘til I sleep with your feet by my feet
your breath on my cheek, asleep
From now until dawn
it can't be too long for me
I count the hours
‘til I sleep with your feet by my feet
your breath on my cheek, asleep
