Well the song is sung, and the road's been ridden
And the things I've done stand like a prison
To have never loved is my greatest error
And of deep regret baby I'm the bearer
But oh to sleep, oh to sleep
To lose myself in the beautiful dream, the beautiful dream
Now there was a time, when I was connected
And I walked the walk that the world expected
But along the tracks, I derailed the trestle
Now that demon doubt, I'll forever wrestle
But oh to sleep, oh to sleep
To lose myself in the beautiful dream, the beautiful dream
In the failing light, I've often wondered
When the angel comes to pull me under
Will this life get left behind me?
Or will these sins forever bind me
But oh to sleep, oh to sleep
To lose myself in the beautiful dream
But oh to sleep, oh to sleep
To lose myself in the beautiful dream, the beautiful dream
