If Only Tonight We Could Sleep

[Verse 1]

If only tonight we could sleep

In a bed made of flowers

If only tonight we could fall

In a deathless spell

If only tonight we could slide

Into deep, black water

And breathe, and breathe

[Verse 2]

Then an angel would come

With burning eyes like stars

And bury us deep

In his velvet arms

And the rain would cry

As our faces slipped away

And the rain would cry

[Outro]

Don't let it end
