Sleep Baby Sleep Lyrics

[Chorus]
Sleep, baby, sleep
What are you waiting for?
The morning's on its way
You know it's only just a dream
Oh, sleep, baby, sleep
I'll lie next to you
The beauty of this mess is that it brings me close to you

[Verse 1]
I could be the one to give you all that I have
With a gentle touch and a foolish love
You could be the one to carry all my troubles away
With the words you say, all I need to hear

[Chorus]
So sleep, baby, sleep
What are you waiting for?
The morning's on its way
You know it's only just a dream
Oh, sleep, baby, sleep
I'll lie next to you
The beauty of this mess is that it brings me close to you

[Verse 2]
Ignorance is torture but your love is right
Tip to tip a gentleman of the night
You feed my fascination with your skin like silk
And I'm still filled with wonder you could fool me easily
[Chorus]
So sleep, baby, sleep
What are you waiting for?
The morning's on its way
You know it's only just a dream
Oh, sleep, baby, sleep
I'll lie next to you
The beauty of this mess is that it brings me close to you

[Bridge]
So lay here and press up next to me
'Cause we'll be alright, we'll be alright
But when we leave I know it's hard
'Cause it's all we know, but we'll be alright
We'll be alright, right

[Chorus]
Sleep, baby, sleep
What are you waiting for?
The morning's on its way
You know it's only just a dream
Oh, sleep, baby, sleep
I'll lie next to you
The beauty of this mess is that it brings me close to you
