I'd like to watch you sleep at night
00:00
To hear you breathe by my side
00:05
And although sleep leaves me behind
00:13
There's nowhere I'd rather be
00:18
And now our bed is oh so cold
00:26
My hands feel empty, no one to hold
00:31
And I can sleep what side I want
00:39
It's not the same with you gone
00:44
Oh if you'd come home
00:52
I'll let you know that
00:56
All you want is right here in this room
00:58
All you want
01:06
And all you need is sitting here with you
01:12
All you want
01:19
It's been three years, one night apart
01:31
But in that night, you tore my heart
01:36
If only you had slept alone
01:44
If those seeds had not been sown
01:49
Oh, you could come home
01:56
And you would know that
02:01
All you want is right here in this room
02:03
All you want
02:11
All you need is sitting here with you
02:16
All you want
02:24
I hear your key turning in the door
02:30
I won't be hearing that sound anymore
02:36
And you and your sin
02:42
Can leave the way you just came in
02:45
Send my regards to her
02:48
I hope you've found that
02:51
All you want is right there in that room
02:56
All you want
03:03
All you need is sitting there with you
03:08
All you want
03:16
I'd like to watch you sleep at night
03:34
To hear you breathe by my side
03:39

[English]
I'd like to watch you sleep at nightTo hear you breathe by my side
And although sleep leaves me behind
There's nowhere I'd rather be
And now our bed is oh so cold
My hands feel empty, no one to hold
And I can sleep what side I want
It's not the same with you gone
Oh if you'd come home
I'll let you know that
All you want is right here in this room
All you want
And all you need is sitting here with you
All you want
It's been three years, one night apart
But in that night, you tore my heart
If only you had slept alone
If those seeds had not been sown
Oh, you could come home
And you would know that
All you want is right here in this room
All you want
All you need is sitting here with you
All you want
I hear your key turning in the door
I won't be hearing that sound anymore
And you and your sin
Can leave the way you just came in
Send my regards to her
I hope you've found that
All you want is right there in that room
All you want
All you need is sitting there with you
All you want
I'd like to watch you sleep at night
To hear you breathe by my side
