Songtexte Tonight I Shall Sleep - Sarah Vaughan

So dark this peacefull night
Through cloudy skies the moon shines bright
I hear your voice so softly sighing, in need of warmth tonight

Remorseless I see your face
So tearfull and yet full of rage
Please be still my love
Don't make this any harder than it is

The animal in me is longing for your blood
But the human in me is longing for your love
I can't decide if I'll let you live tonight
I will hold both your hands and stare into your eyes
Can you decide if you'll let me live tonight?
Just three simple words will keep me from dying inside

A blood lust euphoria
Forever I'll be content
Just please be still my darling
Tonight we shall sleep again

What an angel decent
To sleep under this moon
All this hatred now felt
With razors I remove thee of your wings
Wipe away all the tears, for tonight all these blessings shall be dreams of darkness come true
I'm yearning now
I'm yearning for this moon

The animal in me is longing for your blood
But the human in me is longing for your love
I can't decide if I'll let you live tonight

A blood lust euphoria
Forever I'll be content
Just please be still my darling
Tonight we shall sleep again
