fall to sleep, fall to sleep
it's you i long to keep
but this world will never stay still for you and me
close your eyes, dream of fire
and embers that never expire
the flame that only will burn when we retire
don't let me fade from your mind, love
dimmed by the light of the day
out of the darkness we'll find the way
take my hand, follow me
we'll dance till the starlight retreats
our eyes will never be dry until we meet
don't let me fade from your mind, love
dimmed by the light of the day
out of the darkness we'll find the way
when the morning arrives
and the world comes alive
then you'll leave me behind
and we'll try to survive across the divide
don't let me fade from your mind, love
dimmed by the light of the day
out of the darkness we'll find the way
fall to sleep, fall to sleep
it's you i long to keep
but this world will never stay still for you and me
