lyrics
When all the world's asleep
I'm wide awake dreaming.
I think of you.
Look at what you do.
The world's an empty cup
I can't keep from filling with
thoughts of you just to get me through.
If I can't see you
I can't think of a better way
to spend the night.
You say I'm in gentle spell
well if it's real I can't tell.
If everday's a step, I will keep stepping
through fields of green and all the fool things
love brings.
If I can't see you
I can't think of a better way to spend the night.
You say my dreams are wasting time.
I say I'm lucky I feel so high.
When all the world is up
I will be sleeping
til afternoon
then could I spend it with you?
Look at these stars, oh how they shine,
I wonder when
you will be mine...
