WWOZ's on in stereo
String of flowers haloed around your head
Candlelight, the ceiling fan
Curtains blow away and back again
Back again...
Am C Am
Don't wake me, I think I'm in a dream
G D D4 D D2
Sleepin' is easy
Am
I used to lay in bed for hours
Waited a lifetime now maybe I'll learn
Calling back and forth through heavy air
The barges sound their warnings in the dark
Peace comes like a trusted friend
As it starts to rain again...fall away...
Fall away...
Am C D
Don't wake me, I think I'm in a dream
G D D4 D D2
Sleepin' is easy
Am C
Used to lay in bed for hours
I've waited a lifetime, maybe I'll learn
G D D4 D D2
Sleepin' is easy
Am
Used to walk the streets for hours
I've waited a lifetime, maybe I've learned
Let go of your fear, let's grow old together
Find a place along the way
Let's reel through the years
Each makes the other better.
But what thoughts can I call allies
when this circle of ribs keeps working on its own?
Chorus
