Let Me Sleep Beside You - David Bowie

作词：David Bowie

作曲：David Bowie

Baby baby brush the dust of youth

from off your shoulder

Because the years of threading

daisies lie behind you now

Don't return to fields of green

where rainbow secrets were told

Place your ragged doll with

all the toys and paints and beads

I will show you games

where the winner never wins

Let your hair hang down

Wear the dress your mother wore

Let me sleep beside you

Lock away your childhood

and throw away the key

For now the streets and city sounds

will burn your eyes as coals

We shall drink the oldest wine

and velvet skies will linger

Child you're a woman now

your heart and soul are free

I will hold a lighted lamp

and we shall walk together

Let your hair hang down

Wear the dress your mother wore

Let me sleep beside you

Your darkened eyes throw mystery

But your lips are void of history

You could not imagine

that it could happen this way could you

I will give you dreams

And I'll tell you things you'd like to hear

Let your hair hang down

Wear the dress your mother wore

Let me sleep beside you

Let me sleep beside you
