The River and the Road - STRANGERS IN OUR SLEEP lyrics

rate me

Lover, sing me to sleep

cause I’m a lost boy, and I’m finding myself in too deep

you won’t forget me

but we’re all strangers when we sleep

you will regret me

Shallow spring, and swiftest of ease

we’re all dangerous when we try to stay away from the heat

you’re not alone now

but we’re all strangers when we sleep

this ‘aint my hometown

and all you want to know is my direction

and all you want to know is imperfection when all I say

is that there’s no perfection in anything

So lover, a signal from the deep

I’m scared of water now, and the cold’s underneath my feet

the shelter neglects me

but we’re all strangers when we sleep

can you come get me
