When I Watch You Sleeping |
| when I watch you sleeping |
| I see myself for what I am and the secret I’ve been keeping |
| it’s more than I can stand |
| oh I’ve tried but can’t ignore |
| what I know in heaven saw |
| that’s why when I watch you sleeping |
| I cry |
| there’s a number in my pocket |
| that I should really lose |
| and your picture in my locket |
| smiles so warm and true |
| oh my heart grows ever cold |
| at the thought of the lies I’ve told |
| that’s why when I watch you sleeping |
| I cry |
| if I confess |
| would you forgive me or if I pretend |
| will this emptiness |
| always be with me when I hear you talking |
| with your unquestioning faith |
| I stop our eyes from meeting |
| I turn my face away |
| why should you pay for the crime |
| when all the blame is mine |
| that’s why when I watch you sleeping |
| I cry |
