The Corrs - Only When I Sleep Lyrics

The Corrs - Only When I Sleep Video

You're only just a dreamboat

Sailing in my head

You swim my secret oceans

Of coral blue and red

Your smell is incense burning

Your touch is silken yet

 

It reaches through my skin

Moving from within

And clutches at my breast

 

But it's only when I sleep

See you in my dreams

Got me spinning round and round

Turning upside down

But I only hear you breathe

Somewhere in my sleep

Got me spinning round and round

Turning upside down

But it's only when I sleep

 

And when I wake up from slumber

Your shadow's disappeared

Your breath is just a sea mist

Surrounding my body

I'm working through the daytime

But when it's time to rest

 

I'm lying in my bed

Listening to my breath

Falling from the edge

 

But it's only when I sleep

See you in my dreams

Got me spinning round and round

Turning upside down

But I only hear you breathe

Somewhere in my sleep -in my sleep-

Got me spinning round and round

Turning upside down

But it's only when I sleep

 

It's only when I sleep

 

It's reaching through my skin

Moving from within

And clutches at my breast, yeah

 

But it's only when I sleep

See you in my dreams -dreams-

Got me spinning round and round

Turning upside down

But I only hear you breathe

 

In bed I lie

No need to cry

My sleeping cry

Hawaiian high

 

But its only when I sleep

Got me spinning round and round

Turning upside down

 

Up to the sky

Where angels fly

I'll never die

Hawaiian high

 

But its only when I sleep

Got me spinning round and round

Turning upside down
