Ed Sheeran - Nightmares lyrics

rate me

They tell me you can only dream when you fell asleep,

But now I’m working to achieve, and sleeps the only thing that I never see an I vow that my breathing will never cease

To the retreat, I cant let them be I won’t let them leave and I had the same feeling since 17

But I wasn’t ready then like when the lemons green

Now I’m in the magazines almost every week,

Cause I’m getting heat like in Tenerife, right now its better than its ever been. Never fade like a plant thats evergreen.

Its what I hoped in my heart, but my self doubts getting me,

Faith in my crafts getting dark by the day and I'm getting weak,

Cause I’m new, I’m not where the stars be.

They chase dreams together like a slumber party,

And now I’m on my own, even though I’m smooth sailing

I’m scared to sing, cause my nightmare'll fade in.

Chorus:

When the darkness creeps in,

I feel my nightmares watching me.

And when my dreams are sleeping,

I feel my nightmares watching me.

Oh, oh, oh!

I feel my nightmares watching me.

You better wake up.

cause I A.M making moves,

And even when I’m dozing I'm breaking rules.

I’m only hitting the sack when I’m training,

Too busy trying to keep up with the latest snooze.

Made my bed and that’s where I am headed,

I fly straight with the best man I am better…

Married to the game was a quiet wedding, an I had to fight to get her.

I am taking control of my inception, cause they try to hit my misses with my erection,

See they better marry donna (Maradona) cause when I strike back,

Not even Argentina's gonna cry forever. See I’m awake at night with the ammuni'sh, cause the haters know where the family lives,

Anyone I catch playing knock down ginger

is gonna lose a lot more, than I need it.

They say sleep is the cousin of death

But I ain't hearing that shit, cousin I'm deaf.

Gang signs i'm a N/A reading,

I'm a CEO mother suckers i'm next.

Chorus:

When the darkness creeps in,

I feel my nightmares watching me.

And when my dreams are sleeping,

I feel my nightmares watching me.

Oh, oh, oh!

I feel my nightmares watching me.

Watching me!

Let me go!

I fell asleep on my sofa, woke up in reality,

Daydream about losing my sanity.

I’ve been rhyming for ever got a blind flow…

So I can see an off note with my eyes closed.

But to achieve your dreams you can't doze off, cau you dream asleep.

I ain't nodding off but i'm nodding to the beat.

I’ll be shocking in my sheets, when I should have been asleep.

See, cause the dreams I’m fond of,

You placed me in a team insomnia.

Now, I'm Mr hard worker,

In my nightmares I'm Mr can’t turn up.

And I missed my chance worst luck,

Trying to hit women like Mr Ike Turner.

Yeah, but I walked from that ish,

now they gotta put me to rest in my mattress.

Chorus:

When the darkness creeps in,

I feel my nightmares watching me.

And when my dreams are sleeping,

I feel my nightmares watching me.

Oh, oh, oh!

I feel my nightmares watching me.

Watching me!
