[C]While [G]you [Dm]sleep [Am]Coiled up like a [F]spring
I re[Am]member every[F]thing [C]from the [G]first day
[C]Su[G]mmer [Dm]flowers [Am]Shimmering in the [F]street
Plastic [Am]sandals on your [F]feet [C]in the [G]doorway
You [Dm]looked so [C]hungry You [Dm]couldn't stand [C]still
You [Dm]made everything in the [C]flat look so [G]cheap
I [Em]showed you [Dm]round For[C]getting when to [F]breathe
And that's [Em]still the way I [Dm]feel when I watch [F]you while you [C]sleep
[C]While [G]you [Dm]sleep The [Am]Earth revolves in [F]space
[Am]Ships and planes they [F]race to[C]wards to[G]morrow
You [C]took [G]the [Dm]room And [Am]pretty soon I [F]knew
That we [Am]all would fly to [F]you like [C]little [G]arrows
[Dm]Fancy [C]dressers [Dm]Queens and [C]jesters [Dm]Throwing [C]glances your [G]way
[Em]In the [Dm]street [C]Never worries [F]me
'Cause I'm the [Em]one that gets to [Dm]be be[F]side you while you [C]sleep
Once on a [Am]still, grey, [Em]motorway [Dm]day [Em]
We jumped the [C]green fence [G]and we [F]lay [Am]
[Dm]Watching all the expensive people speeding a[Am]way [F] [Am] [F] [Am] [F] [C] [G]
[Dm]Just before the [C]sun's up The[Dm] wallpaper [C]lights up
And [Dm]another car [C]climbs the [G]hill
[Em]They will [Dm]keep Wha[C]tever plans I've [F]made
They'll wait [C]for another [F]day
When I will [Em]tell you things that [Dm]now I only [F]tell you while you [C]sleep
