The Jayhawks Sleep While You Can song lyrics
Part One:
Talking in the darkness
Wild against the sky
He was prepared to fight but afraid to die
As quiet as a burglar
Creeping up the stairs
Looking for connection, he vowed to never tell
Sleep while you can
I'll make my plans
Sleep while you can
Sleep while you can
Rattle in the cages
Hoping to see the pages
Couldn't make out the faces, but he knew them well
Flower and Rose slippers
Just like his younger sisters
Took them years to figure out where they had failed
Sleep while you can
Part Two:
Where have all my friends gone?
They've all dissapeared
Turned around one day
You're all that was there
Stood by, unbelieving
Stood by on my own
Always thought I was someone, turned out I was wrong
But you brought me through
And you made me feel
So blue
Why don't you stay behind?
So blue
Why don't you stop and look at what's going down
lived by an old woman
She'd Never sell me a lie
Best in life with somebody who likes to sing with you
Give all of my mercy
Give all of my heart
Never thought that I'd miss you
That I'd miss you so much
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
