Songtext von Only Sleep

In this fading hour Of silent dreams All falls quiet In front of me I have to think I must believe That this is only sleep As the day has dried into the night And memory is painted white A kiss will carry you away And find us in another place Still, I want, again, to hold your hand A moment more to understand How much it means these little things To savour one more smile But in the silence Nothing stirs Not a rising breathe To reassure So I hang my head And hold you close For this is only sleep And that's the way I watch the sky With a simple prayer To sail her by I have to think I must believe That this is only sleep Only sleep If morning comes And all is quiet A lifetime dances In my mind But I have to think I must believe That this is only sleep And that's the way I watch the sky With a simple prayer To sail her by I have to think I must believe That this is only sleep Only sleep
