Everybody seems to think I'm lazy
I don't mind, I think they're crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed
Till they find there's no need (there's no need)
Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping

Lying there and staring at the ceiling
Waiting for a sleepy feeling
Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping

[Bridge]
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time

[Verse]
When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (float up stream)
Please don't wake me, no, don't shake me
Leave me where I am  I'm only sleeping
