I can see you laughing in the smoke of dreams
In sepia and tone
I can hear you singing with your glass in hand
An Irish drinking tune
And you told us how you had to drop the bombs on innocent
And on unknown
And we held your hand in the last long night
So you were not alone
I'm with you
'Till the fade
I'm with you all the way
This promise that I've made
Is strictly personal
I'll keep my childish truth
That no one can disprove
Unconscious of this world
You're only
Sleeping
And you chose my colours
And you chose my words
Until I had to run away
But then I returned to let you get to know
The man I am today
Now we only have what is left to us
And these are selfish times I know
But without the comfort and the caress of Love
The garden will not grow
I'm with you
'Till the fade
I'm with you all the way
This promise that I've made
Is strictly personal
I'll keep my childish truth
That no one can disprove
Unconscious of this world
You're only
Sleeping
You're only
Sleeping
We're only
Sleeping
