Sleeping Next to Me

Is that your hand there
Brushing away my sleep
Oo-oo o Oo-oo o
I don't even know
if I dare get up and start my day

It's too warm in here and
Everything's a blur
Oo-oo o Oo-oo o
I don't even know
If there's another her

And here is where I sit
Drawing stars and
Listening to heaven
All by myself
While you are sleeping
Oo-oo o
While you are sleeping
Next to me

Is it night or is it day
Will the sun come up for me today
Oo-oo o Oo-oo o
I don't even know
If I need to see it's face

Will my bones give up or pick you up
While the clouds gather
Around my head
Oo-oo o Oo-oo o
I don't even know
If I need to walk away

And here is where I sit
Drawing stars and
Listening to heaven
All by myself
While you are sleeping
Oo-oo o
While you are sleeping
Next to me

Sleeping next to me
