When You Sleep

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

One foot in front of the other

Keep breathing just like they taught you

You politely asked to take a walk with me

I would've married you there underneath the trees

Is it real, this thing?

Is it real, this thing?

I could make you happy

I could make you love me

I could disappear completely

I could be your love song

I could be long gone

I could be a ghost in your eardrum

When you sleep, will it be with me?

When you sleep, will it be with me?

I swore I saw you in a dream

All dressed in white and wide smile

You politely asked to take a walk with me

And I married you there underneath the trees

Can you feel the beat of my heartbeat beating through me?

Can you feel the beat of my heartbeat beating through?

I could make you happy

I could make you love me

I could disappear completely

I could be your love song

I could be long gone

I could be a ghost in your eardrum

When you sleep, will it be with me?

When you sleep, will it be with me?

How did I miss you, when I didn't know you?

How did I miss you, when I didn't know you?

How did I miss you, when I didn't know you?

How did I miss you, when I didn't know you?

I could make you happy

I could make you love me

I could disappear completely

I could be your love song

I could be long gone

I could be a ghost in your eardrum

I could make you happy

I could make you love me

I could disappear completely

Be with me when you sleep

Be with me
