lover lover be my cover
till the night begins to fade
oh the demons i have danced with
lover lover i'm afraid
to fall asleep
the night is dark and deep
and i am so afraid to sleep
to fall asleep and dream
lover lover let you body
be my curtain be my shade
i'm well acquainted with confusion
lover lover i'm afraid
to fall asleep
the night is dark and deep
and i am so afraid to sleep
to fall asleep and dream
something waits
'neath the water
shapes and shadows drifting near
someone watches
in the darkness
lover won't you make him disappear
hold my tense and tired body
i am scared to close my eyes
how i wish
the reassuring sun would rise
lover lover be my cover
so those demons won't parade
'round me while i lie defenseless
lover lover i'm afraid
to fall asleep
and dream
lover lover be my cover
so those demons won't parade
'round me while i lie defenseless
lover lover i'm afraid
to fall asleep
the night is dark and deep
and i am so afraid to sleep
to fall asleep
and dieLover Lover Be My Cover
