When You Sleep Songtext / Lyric

we drove into the desert, the rain washed out the streets
and somewhere on that soaking night it all came back to me
that month of sunny Sundays, the blush of summer skin
the horse I could not halter came back to do me in

and all I want to know is in the secrets that you keep
why are they so deep, just dreams, that slip your memory

when you sleep, do you dream ...

holding down the fader, 'cause sunlight burns your skin
don't push your luck with a girl like me,
it just might do you in
I'm riding out the winter and shivering in my sleep
this horse I cannot halter is dragging me so deep

and all I want to know is in the secrets that you keep
why are they so deep, just dreams, that slip your memory

when you sleep, do you dream ...
tell me, do you dream
