You Love Me When I'M Sleeping
You say that you want me,
You tell me you need me in you life.
But how can I stay here,
When you don’t love me right.
You comfort me when I cry,
I can see love in your eyes.
Just say those three words to me,
And I’ll stay eternally.
You love me when I’m sleeping.
So if I just close my eyes.
Could you tell me you loved me?
I could comfort you if you were to cry.
Just say those words,
Just cry my name.
I’ll be there,
I’ll always care.
How can three words,
Cause so much compilation.
I know feel,
I just can’t deal.
Things should be that easy.
If we were to pretend,
That I was sleeping.
So you could love me to no end.
So one thing,
When I close my eyes.
Why can you love me when I’m sleeping,
But not when I open my eyes.
Cause you love me when I’m sleeping.
But I love you all the time.
And if you could see, what I see.
You’d be sure to love with open eyes.
