Ooooo
Sleep my love, sleep!

When trust puts you to sleep
When your head is befallen by
A righteous dream

When you just close your eyes
Under the cover of night
I'll run away
As far as I can
I'll run away, because
I can't go on like this
I'll run away before my love completely swallows you

Because the more - I want you
The less I have - of myself
Forgive me

Ooooo
Sleep my love, sleep!
Ooooo
Sleep my love, sleep!

I'll run away from the abyss
The embrace, from which I'll never again rip away
From the lakes of your eyes
I'll drown, if I jump
I'll run away, because
I can't go on like this
I'll run away
As far as I can
I'll run away from the orchids trapping lips
Because the more - I want you
The less I have - of myself
Forgive me

Ooooo
Sleep my love, sleep!
Ooooo
Sleep my love, sleep!

Because the more - I want you
The less I have - of myself
Forgive me
Ooooo
Sleep my love, sleep!
Ooooo
Sleep my love, sleep!
Sleep my love, sleep!
Sleep my love, sleep!
Sleep my love, sleep!
