Jen Foster Sleeping lyrics

Well, here we are, our final meeting
If you told me it would end like this
I wouldn't have believed
I'd be standing here above you

Crying tears upon your face
Imagining your eyes would open
If only I'd say the right thing
If I could say the right thing

And it looks just like you are sleeping
So peacefully at rest after the longest, hardest day
And you look so sweet, as if you're dreaming
I only wish you could awake before the angels carried you away

So, it's time to let you go
Fly away now and be free
And in your never-ending slumber
Will you please save a dream for me?


And I will gently place this flower
In your hand before I leave
They say you cannot take it with you
But this could be the one thing
This love could be the one thing

And it looks just like you are sleeping
So peacefully at rest after the longest, hardest day
And you look so sweet, as if you're dreaming
I only wish you could awake before the angels carried you away

Carried you away and it looks just like you are sleeping
So peacefully at rest after the longest, hardest day
And you look so sweet, as if you're dreaming
