Where Hides Sleep - Alison Moyet

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
