when you're sleeping

the sun came up

desperate

desperate

the stars above

held you back

once again

half way here

half way here they whisper

you talk so much sense

when you're sleeping

when you're sleeping

and you share all the secrets

and the mystery

when you're sleeping

i saw your tears

violet

violet

and it's been years

the sky's been crying for you

i found out

beautiful things about you

you talked so much sense

when you're sleeping

when you're sleeping

yeah

and you share all your secrets

and the mystery

when you're sleeping

so you go and wonder

where you wander

lose yourself to take us higher

and i'll be waiting

for you when you're down

you talk so much sense

when you're sleeping

when you're sleeping

yeah

and you share all the secrets

and the mystery

when you're sleeping
