Byrd Joel Songtext / Lyric

My baby sleeps in blue

Warm and naked, pale and pretty

I feel the seventh wave

Of the ocean in the motion



I feel a brand new sickness

Coming over me like a storm

Used to feel so good beside her

There next to her my arm around her



She fell like flowers

Petals were carried out on my old wind

Landed down in the center

Of this lonely white grip of winter



She brought these gifts of love

I carried down in my pocket

I set them on my shelves

And on the nightstand by my bed






She sleeps and won't come back again

From pretty dreams that keep her

My baby won't come back again

I feel so lost without her



I hear your magic voice

On the analogue of this machine

I hear the smoothest talk

With the coolest transparent star field



Will there be any danger

If our talk is under this roof?

And can you know a stranger

So quickly under this moon?



So go away, come back again

I'll shut you out, I'll pull you in

Don't go away, come back again

I feel so lost



She sleeps in royal blue

And room down past the big dry desert

The sense of music there

And hope reaches you



And gets you past the motions

Of goodbyes [Incomprehensible]

And pulls the deepest winter

Out of this lonely white crippled winter



She sleeps and won't come back again

From pretty dreams that keep her

My baby won't come back again

I am so lost without her



So go away, come back again

I shut you out, I pull you in

Don't go away, come back again

I feel so lost
