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
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
