How Did I Sleep? Lyrics With eyes so blind
How did I see a single thing?
I missed the scenery
Change in front of me
And as for these hands
Well they've got a lot to answer for
They built me a house of sand
On someone else's land
Deep down I knew I was lost
But I kept my fingers crossed
As if that would somehow rescue me
How did I sleep without you?
Tired all the time
But there is no rest for the wicked
Under the covers I pretended not to cry
And there you were
Magnified by the tears
Reaching your hands to me
Waiting patiently
I never dared to dream
Of the beauty my eyes have seen
Awake for the first time: rise and shine
How did I sleep without you?
