Where hides sleep is she watching me
|
Don't desert me now
|
Where hides sleep you're tormenting me
|
Don't forsake me now
|
Take hole of my soul and pull me into darkness
|
Cover me over and styfle my anguish
|
|
Where hides sleep she's avoiding me
|
Don't evade me now
|
Where hides sleep please don't torture me
|
Don't forsake me now
|
|
I open my lips to your warm ancient potion
|
I would be still and devoid of emotion
|
For I would be slumber that I could be rest
|
Curl in warm embers of such peacefulness
|
Caressed by oblivion and swallowed by dreams
|
I want you to hold me and cover my eyes
|
From the cold distant daylight
|
Holds no surprise
|
