Sun
I'm desperate to know how you are
i hope you're deep asleep
I've been awake for days,
trying to study every inch of your body
in this picture, from a distant day.
when I could safely say
nothing in this world could tear me down in any way
but like a dream you disappeared
without a sound, without a trace
Chorus;
Sleep well, darling, wherever you are,
I hope that you're happy tonight
and maybe you found someone who will love you right.
Sleep well, darling
I'm desperate to say now I need you more than ever
but all I could say was goodnight.
this is for a girl back home,
she tore down all my walls.
left me for all she had known,
but I pushed it all away from me.
and no no, even if I knew,
even if I knew what to say to you.
it's just to late to make you stay,
I'm sick of fighting this broken fate.
but someone else gets to tell you,
that you're beautiful.
Chorus;
Sleep well, darling, wherever you are,
I hope that you're happy tonight
and maybe you found someone who will love you right.
Sleep well, darling
I'm desperate to say now I need you more than ever
but all I could say was goodnight.
(instrumental)
it's the last thing I want,
but its all that I've got,
It's the last thing I need,
but i still carry you in my heart.
in my heart.
it's the last thing I want,
but it's all that I've got,
It's the last thing I need,
but i still carry you in my heart.
in my heart.
Chorus;
Sleep well, darling, wherever you are,
I hope that you're happy tonight
and maybe you found someone who will love you right.
Sleep well, darling
I'm desperate to say now I need you more than ever
