[Lyrics for Bat For Lashes – Sleep Alone]
You know my darling;
I can’t stand to sleep alone.
No sweetheart in the dark to call my own,
You’re my own, you’re my own.
I can sing it I can groan.
But the darkness is a stranger,
And I’m lonely, lonely, lonely, low …
Last night’s parties and last
night’s horror show.
Smiling and whirling and kissing
all I know!
Give me soul, give my soul,
Sing it free across the sea!
A lonely spell to conjure you
But conjure hell is all I do.
Lonely, lonely, lonely!
Cause my mama told me,
The dream of love is a
Two hearted dream …
The say for every high
There must be a low.
For every sun ascending
A lonesome moon will grow.
Drive my heart, drive my heart
Into the fire of a burning heart’s
desire!
A lonely spell so you be seen,
Do you hear me coming from my
blue dream?
Lonely, lonely, lonely!
Cause my mama told me
The dream of love is a
two hearted dream …
