One night a silver balloon
Swept me over the sea
Across the Atlantic I found
Myself headed
Towards Paris
I held on the ropes for
Dear life
It was cold below some to freeze
The balloon burst I started
To fall then I woke suddenly
The very next night I saw
Some whales swim
Santa Monica bay
I flew down to great them
I watched them play
In my nakedness I swam
And she spoke in her
Singingsonic way
The mother of them all took off my hate
And then sent me on my way
Flying in my sleep
Flying in my sleep
I visit you almost every night
I float over your bed
You lay there with open
Eyes as your husband
Sleeps in your arms
I can see that you're
Thinking of me
I made a mistake
I should have stayed
So I slide between
The both of you one kiss
I'll be on my way
Flying in my sleep
They say it's a gift but
It's a curse for me
Flying and I see broken
Dreams and tragedy
If I could I would stay
With you forever
In a dream world
That's complete
I've got my life and
You've got yours
But in the night
We meet
I can't wait till the sun goes
Down to lay myself to sleep
I forget about the real life to a dream world I can see
I fall through my mattress
Up through the clouds
High above the earth
I find myself looking for you
Through this
Wonderful Universe
Flying in my sleep
They say it's a gift but
It's a curse for me
Flying and I see broken
Dreams and your tragedy
I'm flyin' in my sleep
Flyin' in my sleep
Flyin' in my sleep
I'm flyin' in my sleep
