If I Go To Sleep Songtext
Whoa – yeah
Whoa – yeah
Whoa – yeah
If I go to sleep
Is anybody there?
Because I don′t believe
And it could be for all time
In an endless dream
I'm sinking in my pillow tonight
And what it is to wake
A long forgotten face
Thought he′d never fade
But he's taken away
So I'd better sail on eternally
Eyes open wide
Is it easier just to dream?
If I go to sleep
I think that it′s alright
Now go to sleep
Will I come around to find
No place to breathe?
When I wake up in a morning
The world′s on fire
Still not turning
Then I know
That it's real again
And as night closes in
A lonely candle burns
But it′s oh so dim
And there's something to be learned
Or forgotten when
I′m sinking in my pillow tonight
And the morning comes
A new day's on the rise
What has just begun
To play upon my mind
Looking all shot down to me
Eyes open wide
Is it better not to dream?
If I go to sleep
Will I think that it′s alright?
Now go to sleep
Will I come around to find
No place to breathe?
When I wake up in a morning
The world's on fire
Still not turning
Then I know
That it's real again
So I lay me down
With a midnight song
Rolling round and round
And I feel much stronger now
But I′ll wait and see
What I need′s so near
Come on set me free
If I go to sleep
I think that it's alright
Now go to sleep
Will I come around to find
No place to breathe?
When I wake up in a morning
The world′s on fire
And it still won't turn
If I go to sleep
I think that it′s alright
Now go to sleep
Will I come around to find
No place to breathe?
When I wake up in a morning
The world's on fire
And it′s still not turning
Then I know
That it's real again
So go to sleep
Just go to sleep
Just close your eyes
And maybe dream
Whoa – yeah
Whoa – yeah
If I go to sleep
Is anybody there?
Because I don′t believe
And it could be for all time
In an endless dream
I'm sinking in my pillow tonight
And what it is to wake
A long forgotten face
Thought he′d never fade
But he's taken away
So I'd better sail on eternally
Eyes open wide
Is it easier just to dream?
If I go to sleep
I think that it′s alright
Now go to sleep
Will I come around to find
No place to breathe?
When I wake up in a morning
The world′s on fire
Still not turning
Then I know
That it's real again
And as night closes in
A lonely candle burns
But it′s oh so dim
And there's something to be learned
Or forgotten when
I′m sinking in my pillow tonight
And the morning comes
A new day's on the rise
What has just begun
To play upon my mind
Looking all shot down to me
Eyes open wide
Is it better not to dream?
If I go to sleep
Will I think that it′s alright?
Now go to sleep
Will I come around to find
No place to breathe?
When I wake up in a morning
The world's on fire
Still not turning
Then I know
That it's real again
So I lay me down
With a midnight song
Rolling round and round
And I feel much stronger now
But I′ll wait and see
What I need′s so near
Come on set me free
If I go to sleep
I think that it's alright
Now go to sleep
Will I come around to find
No place to breathe?
When I wake up in a morning
The world′s on fire
And it still won't turn
If I go to sleep
I think that it′s alright
Now go to sleep
Will I come around to find
No place to breathe?
When I wake up in a morning
The world's on fire
And it′s still not turning
Then I know
That it's real again
So go to sleep
Just go to sleep
Just close your eyes
And maybe dream
