"Sleep On It" lyrics

It's been a while since we crossed paths
But I see you in my dreams
And in my mind, there's a precipice
Over which my heart careens
And when I wake, I want only
To drift back into slumber
And wonder, baby
When I'm gonna see you again

So, let me sleep on it
Baby, that's all I wanna do
Float down in reverie
Let me dream only of you

No, you won't catch me yawnin', darlin'
I ain't no creature of the night
The Sandman's a comin'
And I ain't gonna put up a fight
I'm just countin' down the hours until I can lay my head to rest
And dream a dream about you, baby
And your sleepy caress

So, let me sleep on it
Baby, that's all I wanna do
Float down in reverie
Let me dream only of you
Only of you

I can't wait any longer
Oh, just put me under!

So, let me sleep on it
Baby, that's all I wanna do
Float down in reverie
Let me dream only of you

So, let me sleep on it
Baby, that's all I wanna do
Float down in reverie
Let me dream only of you
Only of you
