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 tea-cup

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.



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

Go to sleep.
