What, am I suspended here?
Should I kid myself that I have no fear?
I get no choice, I just have to wait
It may already be too late
I don't know what's goin' on
She is here, but I am gone
I am gone
My love is lyin' here
She's far away though she looks so near
"Time will tell", she says to me
When a warm coat is all I need
Her peace of mind, her strentgh of will
It will come, she's sure it will
But how can I put my mind at rest?
I feel I'm comin' off second best
And I'm cut with my own knife
Is this a dream or is it real life?
Oh, sleep, come on me soon
I can't bear this lonely room
Look at that hand lying there
The room is dark, she shows no fear
I'm lying still, my eyes are wide
My heart is pumpin', I'm still alive
I'm still awake against my will
What will it ever take to still this burning in me?
And I'm cut with my own knife
Is this a dream or is it real life?
Oh, sleep, come on me soon
I can't bear this lonely room
Sleep, come on me soon
I can't bear this lonely room
Sleep, don't take too long
Can't keep singing this lonely song
Sleep, come on me soon
