Del Amitri - Sleep Instead Of Teardrops lyrics
[Del Amitri - Sleep Instead Of Teardrops lyrics]
It won't go away i i'm just a dumb observer
It's so stupid what I say
Like everyone else will do
I'm gonna lie to you
Tell you that life is cruel
But someday you're gonna wake up
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes
An so nobody lives forever
The crassest of clichés like time
Time is the greatest healer
But it's a murderer today
Like everyone else will do
I'm gonna lie to you
Tell you that life is cruel
But someday you're gonna wake up
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes
You know my holding you won't change
Anything
I can't stop this whole charade, continuing
As each consoling kiss remains, on your face
Like a stain
So cry cry out those tears an let them
Succumb to gravity and try
Try as I might I'll never fill that vacancy
Like everyone else will do
I'm gonna lie to you
Tell you that life is cruel
But someday you're gonna wake up
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes
Someday you're gonna wake up
With sleep instead of teardrops in your eyes
