Song Lyrics

"Sleeping With a Stranger"

by Matthew Perryman Jones
Album: Land of the Living

Caught in a wildfire
Choking on the flames
Of a strange pyre
The ashes of a dream
Feed the fantasy

Locked on the inside
Tangled up in chains
And the crazy lies
Terrified and lame
In silence we escape

Oh, kiss my heart awake
We're so far away
I'm sleeping with a stranger

Lonely and tongue-tied,
All is out of place
And the words you hide
Are written on your face
I'm lifting up the lace

Oh, kiss my heart awake
We're so far away
I'm sleeping with a stranger

Come back to me
Stop whispering
Have we fallen far too deep'

Oh, kiss my heart awake
We're so far away
I'm sleeping with a stranger
Oh, kiss my heart awake
We're so far away
I'm sleeping with a stranger
