Lyrics for Asleep In Perfection

Over the airwaves tonight, Sailing by a love lonely light, Isn't it blue, but isn't it brighter Than the pilot of a domestic flight Well under this low, lonely light I might be still in sight, You were a girl, now you're a wife Do not these memories stir you From your long and peaceful night's Sleep in perfection Asleep in Perfection A soul's misdirection, directed at you. Waiting for Summer to come, Will you wear a rainbow on And outside your window something grows In your garden, is it content Well that's not what I need tonight, Maybe I don't think right, Or maybe I lack that insight And only the numb or the peaceful might Sleep in perfection, Asleep in Perfection A soul's misdirection directed at you. Over the airwaves tonight, Sailing by a love lonely light, Isn't it blue, or is it the sight of you Set to fall Asleep in Perfection
