Alison Moyet — Where Hides Sleep lyrics

Lyrics

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
