Lyrics Sleep Is Just a Dream (feat. Your Friend The Poet) - Youngr

Sometimes at night
The motorbikes outside my window sound like screams
And tear me from dreams so fast I gasp for air
Like actors from nightmares in bad movies

And I want to pull you to me
Feel your heart beat slow
Act like I know those beasts that creep in shadow
Are tricks of sight,
A flickered streetlight
Or full beam left on
But you're gone
And tonight it would seem
Sleep is just a dream

Sometimes at night
Blurred lights mean sleepy eyes won't focus
And I don't have to notice you on every street
A steady beat, my feet on stone
A current flows to here from home
And tonight it would seem
Sleep is just a dream

A poet would write
You shone like starlight
Or glowed like the midnight moon
Poets lie
There are no stars in the city sky
High rises hide the moon from view
Here's what's true
Sometimes at night this city runs a river right to you
Right to your door
Where I stand drowning in all that went before
In all that's ever been
And tonight it would seem
Sleep is just a dream
