| Placing a smile at the perfect event
|
| Gracing your skin with the side of my hand
|
| If I ever leave, I could learn to miss you
|
| But «Sentimental Boy» is my nom de plume
|
| Let me save you, hold this rope
|
| I may never sleep tonight (Sleep tonight…)
|
| As long as you’re still burning bright
|
| If I could trade mistakes for sheep
|
| Count me away before you sleep
|
| So, I’ll stay awake till I trade my mistakes
|
| Or they fade away
|
| I feel marooned in this body
|
| Deserted, my organs can go on without me
|
| You can’t fly these wings (Fly these wings)
|
| You can’t sleep in this box with me
|
| Let me save you, hold this rope
|
| I may never sleep tonight (Never sleep tonight…)
|
| As long as you’re still burning bright
|
| If I could trade mistakes for sheep
|
| Count me away before you sleep
|
| So, I’ll stay awake till I trade my mistakes
|
| Or they fade away
|
| So, let me save you, hold this rope
|
| And I’ll pull you in, 'cause I am an anchor
|
| Save her or feel it sinking in
|
| Let me save you, hold this rope
|
| (This is only the greatest story every told)
|
| I am an anchor, sinking her
|
| (With lightning in my head to be brought to the world)
|
| I may never sleep tonight (Never sleep tonight…)
|
| As long as you’re still burning bright
|
| If I could trade mistakes for sheep
|
| Count me away before you sleep
|
| So, I’ll stay awake till I trade my mistakes
|
| Or they fade away |
