With eyes so blind, how did I see a single thing?
I missed the scenery change in front of me
And as for these hands, they've got a lot to answer for
They built me a house of sand on someone else's land

Deep down I knew I was lost
But I kept my fingers crossed
As if that would somehow rescue me

How did I sleep?
How did I sleep?
How did I sleep
Without you, without you?

Tired all the time but there is no rest for the wicked
Under the covers I pretended not to cry
And there you were magnified by the tears
Reaching your hands to me waiting patiently

I never dared to dream
Of the morning my eyes have seen
Awake for the first time, rise and shine

How did I sleep?
How did I sleep?
How did I sleep
Without you, without you?

How did I sleep?
How did I sleep?
How did I sleep
Without you, without you?

How did I sleep?
How did I sleep?
How did I sleep
Without you, without you
Without you, without you?

Without you
How did I ever try?
How did I sleep?

Rise and shine, awake for the first time
Rise and shine, awake for the first time
Rise and shine, awake for the first time
