John Elton Sleeping With The Past

You're a cool little one My dark southern breeze Sweeps through my fingers And it amazes me Dixie shadow land Your envy shelters me Lay down your burden

me now in your gentle healin' hands I never knew love like poison That burned like a fire All I ever wanted was a reason To drown in your eyes I never knew sleep

fool Don't go sleepin' with the past Don't go prayin' he'll come back Take a deep breath and deny You could love a man like that Don't go sleeping with the past

out of the ground After forty eight hours Going down down down down down Going down in Durban deep Going down down down down down There's no mercy in my sleep

fool Don't go sleeping with the past Don't go praying he'll come back Take a deep breath and deny You could love a man like that Don't go sleeping with the past

fool Don't go sleeping with the past Don't go praying he'll come back Take a deep breath and deny You could love a man like that Don't go sleeping with the past

others Hurt me with the night Whisper like cold winds close to the bone Save heaven for lovers, leave me alone With your whispers, whispers, whispering whispers With

: When the shades are drawn And the light of the moon is banned And the stars up above Walk the heavens hand in hand There's a shady place At the end

she swept through the church Like a sweet Sunday prayer While the choir sang Son of Heaven And the groom just walked on air I was killing time with Jesus
