OOH WHEN I WATCH YOU SLEEP
OH SO PEACEFULLY COUNTING SHEEP
ME I’VE BEEN UP ALL NIGHT ON MY SEE SAW
OVER WHERE THE SHADOWS MEET
AND I CIRCLE ROUND A MURKY. HAZE WITH A TRAPEZOIDAL GAZE
AND I MEET THE DEVIL FACE TO FACE
THEN HE DISAPPEARS
WITHOUT A TRACE
OOH WHEN THE NIGHTIME MELTS
AND THE GENTLE SOULS FIND THEY’RE PEACE
AND WHEN DAYLIGHT WAITS FOR THE MIDNIGHT WALKERS GO TO SLEEP
AND THEY GO BACK UNDERNEATH THE GROUND
SOMEWHERE FARAWAY FROM TOWN
AND THEY DISAPPEAR WITHOUT A SOUND
I HEAR THE ANGELS SINGING
I HEAR THE SPIRITS WEEPING
I HEAR THE CLOCK IS TICKING
I HEAR THE SLEEPERS SLEEPING
I SEE THE DREAMERS DREAMING
I SEE THE WATCHERS WATCHING
I SEE RUNNERS RUNNING
I SEE THE DANCERS DANCING
