Sleeping Songtext

von The Band

Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "Sleeping" von "The Band" handelt von der Sehnsucht nach Ruhe und Frieden in einer Welt voller Schmerz und ...

For the life we chose in the evening we rose,
Just long enough to be lovers again.
And for nothing more, the world was too sore
To live in.

Sad old ships,
A morning eclipse,
I spent my whole life guessing,
Then I turned from the sun
And saw everyone
Searching.

The hoot owl and his song, will bring you along
Where else on earth would you wanna go?
We can leave all this hate, before it's too late
Why would we wanna come back at all?

Cobwebs on my pillow,
I'm found in the willow,
I'd spend my whole life sleeping.
To be called by noon
Is to be called too soon
Today.

The storm is passed,
There is peace at last,
I'll spend my whole life sleeping.
Now there's not a sound,
No one to be found
Anywhere.

The shepherd and his sheep
Will wind you to sleep,
Where else on earth would you wanna go?
To a land of wonder
When you go under,
Why would we want to come back at all?
