Paloma Faith
Sleeping Is For Dreamers
[Verse 1]
The cat walks on the piano
She makes the sweetest sound
And the old tramp, Sir William
Has brought on a little crowd
He claims he's a fallen angel
And sent to spread the word
Too bad he can't remember it
'Cause we all might've heard it's absurd

[Chorus]
Sleeping is for dreamers
So I try to stay awake
You'll miss it all if your eyes are closed
My words are no mistake

[Verse 2]
The answer to all you're looking for
Is in these city streets
Where gardens grow behind windows
And lazy morons sleep
The vipеr may tell you to turn your cheek
So not to see the truth
But the circus band keeps playing on
You can havе an endless youth
[Chorus]
Sleeping is for dreamers
So I try to stay awake
You'll miss it all if your eyes are closed
My words are no mistake

[Bridge]
Won't you wake up, take my hand, I'll guide you
Follow me, believe in me, forget your pride
Won't you wake up, there's so much to see here
And you don't want to be left out

[Chorus]
'Cause sleeping is for dreamers
So I try to stay awake
You'll miss it all if your eyes are closed
My words are no mistake

[Post-Chorus]
Won't you wake up, take my hand, I'll guide you
Follow me, believe in me, forget your pride
Won't you wake up, there's so much to see here
And you don't want to be left out
