There's a shadow on the terrace
A snow dance for the living
There's heavy weather on the way
I heard it on the news.
And life's a tough principal
who won't reward the losers
Your name is on the tea-cup
There's nothing I can do.

But to wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
And I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep.

There are tears without the colour
A million seas with water
An ocean full of people
where shattered hearts can go.
And love's a golden ripple
where answers are so simple
But the explanations are very hard to do.

And I wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
And I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep
Go to sleep...
