Colin Linden - I Love You When You're Sleeping lyrics

I could watch your REM for hours without getting bored And hear your palate weave and flow At times when you are most unconscious I love you when you're sleeping I love you when you're dreaming far away People live here up and down And they don't have padded walls And they scream at their TVs I wish they could give me earplugs I love you when you're sleeping I love you when your feet are off the ground I love you when you're sleeping I love you when you cannot make a sound Someone told me hatred was a crime But hatred's not what I've got on my mind Everyone must learn it sooner or later Everybody must love their neighbor I love you when you're sleeping I could name some kings and queens And presidents upon their thrones I wonder how they face themselves When they are not out in public I love you when you're sleeping I love you when your dreaming's low and long I love you when you're sleeping I love you when you're far away and gone And when you're awake I may not say I love you when you're sleeping When you're sleeping
