John Wesley Harding - You're Looking At Me lyrics

rate me

I was breathing not sleeping nor having the choice

I was brushed by the skirts of a ghost with your voice

You were drowned in the buzz of the humming machines

And you were looking at me

You're looking at me

A strange conversation in the visiting room

The big smile of ignorance shone like the moon

What I wanted to say was lost at sea

Cos you were looking at me

You're looking at me

Being your sleeper what should I do but tend

Enlaced in your beauty, silent shining friend

Sunburned and bruised where no-one can see

You were looking at me

You're looking at me

Where is the dreamer when night makes its slide

And light takes a candle to shine on inside

And is it a dream that no-one can see

That you're looking at me?

You're looking at me
