Sleep Through the Night
Written & recorded in 6 hours after listening to Danger Mouse & watching a Once Upon a Time marathon.
I used to sleep just like a child
Through summer storms & autumns mild
Mind as empty as the air
Hit the pillow...not a carePeaceful nights began to fade
Torture dressed as promenade
Why'd you have to be so - right?
Out of reach, but still in sightI see your face in my dreams
Hear your voice in between
The stars in the sky
As they twinkle goodbye
To a heart that's not mine
And a truth so unkind
The moon shines too bright
Just wanna sleep through the night
Sleep through the nightI'm so addicted to your mind
Your heart, your soul, your eyes so kind
God, I know I've seen your face
In another time, another placeI see your face in my dreams
Hear your voice in between
The stars in the sky
As they twinkle goodbye
To a heart that's not mine
And a truth so unkind
The moon shines too bright
Won't let me sleep through the night
Sleep through the nightI know that we're not meant to be
Still, your soul's inside of me
Wish that I could deny
What I'm feeling insideI see your face in my dreams
Hear your voice in between
The stars in the sky
As they twinkle goodbye
To a heart that's not mine
And a truth so unkind
The moon shines too bright
Won't let me sleep through the nightI see your face in my dreams
Hear your voice in between
The stars in the sky
As they twinkle goodbye
To a heart that's not mine
And a truth so unkind
The moon shines too bright
Just wanna sleep through the night
Sleep through the night
