Sleepwalking

From Nur Ein III (2008).

Sleepwalking 3:10

All the songs

VERSE 1
I have wandered through the city
Into the fields beyond
Swam in water clear and dirty
No idea where I’ve gone

VERSE 2
I’ve had half a dozen scares
Nearly fallen to my death
All the while I’m unaware
I’ve nearly taken my last breath

CHORUS
But don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
Let me keep sleepwalking.

VERSE 3
I have been to outer space
Fell straight through the sun
I have kissed a pretty face
And just knew she was the one

VERSE 4
If I never woke again
I would not shed a tear
You can have the world
I like it better in here

CHORUS
So don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
Let me keep sleepwalking.

BRIDGE
Dance in the road
Like there’s music to hear
Talk to the sky
As if it has an ear
