Tal Bachman - If You Sleep (Acoustic Version Recorded At World Cafe) lyrics

Figure of divine perfection No one's loved with more affection Soul to soul we've breathed Oh, I won't let The Fates succeed Worried hours of contemplation Whispered bits of conversation Unaffected orderlies Disinfected rooms and hallways And if you sleep you sleep with God And if I cry, it's for my heart Why should I hope to make it through? 'Cause if you sleep, I'll sleep too, ooh Jagged thorns and pretty petals bu*terflies and stinging nettles Sunny days and nights of blackness But where's the joy to cure my sadness? And if you sleep you sleep with God And if I cry, it's for my heart Why should I hope to make it through? 'Cause if you sleep, I'll sleep too And if I die you die tonight And if I walk, it's for the fight Why should I hope to make it through? 'Cause if you sleep, I'll sleep too Gleaming cars and covered faces Teary eyes in hallowed places Gra** and granite stone No one's been more all alone And if you sleep you sleep with God And if I cry, it's for my heart Why should I hope to make it through? 'Cause if you sleep, I'll sleep too And if I die you die tonight And if I walk, it's for the fight Why should I hope to make it through? 'Cause if you sleep, I'll sleep too, ooh If you sleep, if you sleep, if you sleep, I'll sleep too
