Lyrics of I Watch You Sleep by Shirley Horn
Why won′t you stay
I need to know your love
Is there a way?
To make you show your love belongs to me?
You smile in your sleep
Am I the theme of
The joy you dream of?
Or have I made
Another sad mistake?
But I watch you wake
I watch you sleep
And wonder where you've gone
Where do your dreams fly?
Am I there?
I breathe your hair
And wonder where you′ve gone
Though you're beside me,
You're far away
Why don′t you stay?
I need to know your love
Is there a way?
To make you show your love belongs to me?
You smile in your sleep
Am I the theme of
The joy you dream of?
Or have I made
Another sad mistake?
But I watch you wake
I watch you sleep
Writer(s): Richard Rodney Bennett, Joel Edward Siegel
