Lyrics When You Sleep - Mary Lambert

One foot in front of the other
Keep breathing just like they taught you
You politely ask to take a walk with me
I would've married you there underneath the trees

Is it real, this thing?
Is it real, oh, this thing?

I could make you happy
I could make you love me
I could disappear completely
I could be your love song
I could be long gone
I could be a ghost in your eardrum
When you sleep, will it be with me?
When you sleep, will it be with me?

I swore I saw you in a dream
All dressed in white and wide smile
You politely asked to take a walk with me
And I married you there underneath the trees
Can you feel the beat of my heart beat, beat through me?
Can you feel the beat of my heart beat, beat through me?

I could make you happy
I could make you love me
I could disappear completely
I could be your love song
I could be long gone
I could be a ghost in your eardrum
When you sleep, will it be with me?
When you sleep, will it be with me?

How did I miss you when I didn't know you?
Oh
How did I miss you when I didn't know you?
Oh
How did I miss you when I didn't know you?
Oh
How did I miss you when I didn't know you?
Oh

I could make you happy
I could make you love me
I could disappear completely

I could be your love song
I could be long gone
I could be a ghost in your ear drum
I could make you happy
I could make you love me
I could disappear completely
Be with me, when you sleep, be with me
