Love Is Only Sleeping lyrics

She looked at me And the emptiness in her eyes was cruel to see Then she turned away and said Once I loved, but love is dead And I whispered: Sometimes love is only sleeping She said I cannot cry And I cannot give or feel or even try And her voice was hard and could And her sweet young face looked old And I whispered, Sometimes love is only sleeping Through the endless days and nights She could not help but wrap herself in sorrow Through the endless days and nights We waited for a shiny new tomorrow Love was sleeping Sleeping She looked at me And her smiling tears feel warm and sweet and free And the moonlight kissed her eyes As it mingled with our sighs And she whispered, Sometimes love is only sleeping And she whispered, Sometimes love is only sleeping Only sleeping Only sleeping
