Sleep Dream

Send me off on petals made of metal

I lay wake I’m not dreaming

You go to sleep I look after you

I try to sleep but awake is calling me

You go to sleep when I’m not looking

I dream you sleep within me

I wake up screaming while you sleep next to me
 
I’m dreaming for both of us

You wake while I roll over and tuck under covers

Coffee is brewing while I’m sleeping

Your caffeine keeps me alive

Pulsing in my veins you arouse me

I sleep while you work awake

You sleep sweet dreams to me

I sleep when you dream awake about me

I dream when I can’t see you
