Back to sleep

Slumber-blind I speak my mind
When I´m out cold (or so I´m told)
And so I´m scared to rest my head in company.
You´re not scared of words unsaid,
You close your eyes, say your goodbyes
And so I´m left to watch you drift away from me
So peacefully.
And I´m just looking for the person
Who will smile at all my questions,
Who will tell me I´m just tired, and then send me
Back to sleep.
You stole the covers in the night,
You turned away, turned out the light,
But it´s OK because I´m already miles away.
When I´m out cold (or so I´m told)
And so I´m scared to rest my head in company.
You´re not scared of words unsaid,
You close your eyes, say your goodbyes
And so I´m left to watch you drift away from me
So peacefully.
And I´m just looking for the person
Who will smile at all my questions,
Who will tell me I´m just tired, and then send me
Back to sleep.
You stole the covers in the night,
You turned away, turned out the light,
But it´s OK because I´m already miles away.
