(Baby... before you go to sleep...)
(Baby...)
There's a shadow on the terrace,
a snow dance for the living.
There's heavy weather on the way.
(I heard it on the news...)
And life's a tough principal
who won't reward the losers.
Your name is on the teacup.
(There's nothing I can do...)
(There's nothing I can do...)
But to wish you'd think about me
before you go to sleep.
And I wish you the best there is
before you go to sleep.
There are tears without the colour,
a million seas with water.
An ocean full of people
(Where shattered hearts can go...)
And love's a golden ripple
where answers are so simple
but the explanations
(Are very hard to do...)
(Are very hard to do...)
(Are very hard to do...)
And I wish you'd think about me
before you go to sleep.
And I wish you the best there is
before you go to sleep.
Yes, I wish you'd think about me
before you go to sleep.
And I wish you the best there is
before you go to sleep.
Before you go to sleep.
(Baby... before you go to sleep...)
(Baby... before you go to sleep...)
(Go to sleep... baby...)
