Sleep Is a Rose

Sleep is a rose

But I only hear the gale wind blowing cold

Against my windows

As I fold, then I curl my leg around yours, in a hold

I said darling I'm scared of growing old

I'm sorry if I'm loud

I'm just worrying about that now

Cause I lay here

I'm still waiting for the sun

And you said sleep is a rose

But I wanna tell you, it only brings me fear

And you said sleep is a rose

But I wanna tell you, it only brings me fear

I started to listen, to every little sound

And so how, am I supposed to forget silence?

As I fold, and I curl, my own head around yours in a hold

You said my love I'll take you to the fairground

I know you're not around

You're sleeping and talking now

And I'm still laying here

Just waiting for the sun

And you said sleep is a rose

But I wanna tell you, it only brings me fear

And you said sleep is a rose

But I wanna tell you, it only brings me fear

And you said boy, you better know that you got this love

And you said boy, you better know that you got this love

And you said sleep is a rose

But I wanna tell you, it only brings me fear

Yeah you said sleep is a rose

But I wanna tell you, it only brings me fear

So I hope, morning comes around soon
