Sound asleep in an ocean of crashes Sound asleep in pouring black rain Bedside voices praying with tears of ashes Stung by the salt of weeping skies All alone lying shoulder to shoulder All alone with hot hand in hand Sleepy gestures of tongue and lashes Cheek to cheek with last goodbyes Hold me a child in your arm Hold me, please hold me I'm lost in your gaze Floating away Wide awake in an ocean of silence Wide awake in soft lullabies Linen shadows floating through open sashes All in the touch of mothers eyes Hold me a child in your arms Stung by the salt of weeping skies Cheek to cheek with last goodbyes
