Only When I Sleep lyrics by The Corrs
Only when I sleepBy the Corrs, from the album Talk on corners.
Verse 1:
... You're only just a dream boat, sailing in my head
You swim my secret oceans, of coral blue and red
Your smell is incense burning, your touch is silken yet
It reaches through my skin, moving from within
And it clutches at my breast...
Chorus:
But it's only when I sleep, see you in my dreams
Got me spinning round and round, turning upside down
But I only hear you breathe, somewhere in my sleep
Got me spinning round and round, turning upside down
But it's only when i sleep...
Verse 2:
... And when I wake from slumber, your shadow's disappeared
You breath is just the sea mist, surrounding my body
I'm working through the daytime, but when it's time to rest...
I'm lying in my bed, listening to my breath
Falling from the edge...
Chorus.
But it's only when I sleep...
I see you in my...
... But it's only when I sleep... yeah yeah.... yeah yeeayeaaaaaa
aaaahh... I'ts only when I sleep...
Lyrics while solo:
Up to the sky, where eagles fly
I'll never die, hawaiian high...
Bridge: It reaches through my skin... (chords as on first verse)
Chorus... and out(same chords as on chorus all the way out):
But it's only when I sleep...
...
...
In bed I lie, no need to cry
My sleeping cry, hawaiian high...
...
Up to the sky, where angels fly
I'll never die, hawaiian high...
...
