Intro
Verse 1
We slept in this room together but now you're gone
And it's so quiet I turn the TV on
We lived in this room together, we painted the walls
Now time doesn't stand still, it crawls
Chorus 1
And I'm afraid to sleep
'Cause if I do I dream of you
And dreams are always deep
On the pillow where I weep
Verse 2
I never realized how much I was in love with you
Until you started sleeping with someone new
Last night I dreamed again and you were there
You kissed my face you touched my hair
Chorus 1
And I'm afraid to sleep
'Cause if I do I dream of you
And dreams are always deep
On the pillow where I weep
Bridge 1
Lying alone in the darkness
With a memory in my head
There's a big hole where my heart is
And a lonely feeling rollin' round my bed
Chorus 1
And I'm afraid to sleep
'Cause if I do I dream of you
And dreams are always deep
On the pillow where I weep
Verse 3
I started wondering: how did we get here?
There were no danger signs, the way was clear.
Could we retrace our steps, choose a different line:
A happy ending, in which you were mine?
Chorus 2
Now I’m afraid to wake
You never left and this warm nest
Protects me from the ache
Of a heart about to break.
Bridge 2
Sinking into the abyss.
No way forward, no way out.
I didn’t ask to be like this.
But it’s the only time I haven’t any doubt.
Chorus 2
Now I’m afraid to wake
You never left and this warm nest . . .
I’m afraid to wake
You never left and this warm nest
Protects me from the ache
Of a heart about to break.
Of a heart about to break.
N.C.
I’m afraid to wake
