Ry Cooder
Everyone Sleeps In The Light
[Verse 1]
Ask the sun painted red too soon
I love you now, I love you and
Ask the dust in this telephone room
If I love you, if I love you now
[Chorus]
Everyone sleeps in the light
Oh, in the light of a bitter moon
Everybody's looking out, baby
From another room
Crying out don't pass me by
[Verse 2]
Ask the lights on Highway One
They follow you, they follow you now
Ask my shadow trapped on these walls
They haunt me too, now they're gonna haunt me too
[Chorus]
Everyone sleeps in the light
Oh, in the light of a bitter moon
Everybody's looking out, baby
From another room
Crying out don't pass us by
[Bridge]
I'm the tunnel man in your tunnel game
I wait to play with you
When will you send me on through
[Chorus]
Everyone sleeps in the light
Oh, in the light of a bitter moon
Everybody's looking out, baby
From another room
Everyone sleeps in the light
Oh, in the light of a bitter moon
Everybody's looking out, baby
From another room
Crying out don't pass us by
Everyone sleeps in the light
Oh, in the light of a bitter moon
Everybody's looking out, baby
From another room
Crying out don't pass us by
[Outro]
Everyone sleeps in the light
Oh, in the light of a bitter moon
