Oh I feel so tired I cannot hardly keep open My eyes My thoughts are scattered and I cannot say a word And I can't seen to remember anything I've learned
Well do you have some of those days When you can't be who you wanna be When you just need to close your eyes Pull the covers up so high and drift away
And sleep so soundly And dream profoundly Cast all your cares on the Only thing that you really need And sleep so soundly
Now I feel so light My sense of movement's slowed And somehow my tongue's tied My thoughts are shattered And they're making stars in the sky And I've never felt so speechless In my life
Well do you have some of those days When you just need, you just need to be When you just need to shut your mouth And close your eyes breathe in and out and drift away
Sleep Yeah So soundly And dream, just dream Profoundly
Song Description: "Written while pregnant with my first-born, Solomon Fury Lee, this was immediate feeling put to song. Tired, fat and in the studio making a rock record, I couldn't focus and these are the words that came to mind. However, for 'Blink' I re-recorded it because it took on a whole new meaning when I met Solomon face to face ... and how ironic it is that the second verse gives almost a play by play of the elated feeling I got immediately when he was born. These words now adorn the walls of our nursery." - Plumb
