Oh Sovereign, where are you?
I'm getting older, it's getting closer to bedtime.
I'll turn off the house,
And sleep another year behind.
And where are you tonight,
Beneath the sheets of spinning mirrors in my mind?
I wish I knew what you looked like.
But who would ever know?
Who would ever know?
Under the bedclothes,
I swim below the surface
Of the time that I found you
Alone behind the curtains,
And we fall down this hill,
And break the barriers
That cease our lonely hearts.
I won't stop.
In a dream you came to me
As a figure of someone I knew from long ago,
A flame that never faded
That holds onto the night that folds us.
We spent time as though we were younger,
Making scenes I'm sure would show
That I know just what you look like.
But who would ever know?
Who would ever know?
Under the bedclothes,
I swim below the surface
Of the time that I found you
Alone behind the curtains,
And we fall down this hill,
And break the barriers
That cease our lonely hearts.
I won't stop.
(Cease our lonely hearts)
Every story left unseen
Are awakened from the in-between.
Under the bedclothes,
I swim below the surface
Of the time that I found you
Alone behind the curtains,
And we fall down this hill,
And break the barriers
That cease our lonely hearts.
I won't stop.
