where hides sleep is she watching me don t desert me now where hides sleep you re tormenting me don t forsake me now take hole of my soul and pull me into darkness cover me over and styfle my anguish where hides sleep she s avoiding me don t evade me now where hides sleep please don t torture me don t forsake me now i open my lips to your warm ancient potion i would be still and devoid of emotion for i would be slumber that i could be rest curl in warm embers of such peacefulness caressed by oblivion and swallowed by dreams i want you to hold me and cover my eyes from the cold distant daylight holds no surprise
