Righteous Night - Lyrics by Des'ree


Lyrics

Tell me, do you fly in your dreams? Yeah.
And uh, tell me, are you paralyzed when you scream.
Do you rise to the ceiling and look down on your bed?
You break a sweat, you realize that you ain't dead, yet.

It was a righteous night, and I slept with all my eyes.
It was a righteous night, then I took flight.

Tell me, do they think that your mad?
And uh, tell me do they think that your sad?
Something strange, you just can't explain. No.
You close your eyes, you want it to happen again

It was a righteous night, and I slept with all my eyes.
It was a righteous night, then I took flight.

I'm sleepy, sleepy.
I'm dreaming, dreaming.
Tossing, turning
Flying. Flying.

It was a righteous night, and I slept with all my eyes.
It was a righteous night, then I took flight
