DGA
One night a silver balloon swept me over the sea
DGA
across the Atlantic I found myself headed towards Paris
DGA
I held on to the ropes for dear life it was cold enough to freeze
DGA
the balloon burst and I started to fall then I woke suddenly
Interlude: 2x D, G, ADGA
The very next night I saw some whales swim Santa Monica bay
DGA
I flew down to greet them I watched them play
DGA
in my nakedness I swam and she spoke in her singing sonic way
DGA
the mother of them all took my hate then send me on my way
CGD
Flying in my sleep
CGD
Flying in my sleep
DGA
I visit you almost every night I float over your bed
DGA
you lay there with open eyes and your husband sleeps in your arms
DGA
I can see that you`re thinking of me I made a mistake I should have stayed
DGA
I slide between the both of you one kiss and I`ll be on my way
CGD
Flying in my sleep
CGD
they say it`s a gift but it`s a curse for me
CGD
flying and I see
CGA
broken dreams and tragedy
BmG
If I could I would stay with you forever
BmG
in a dream world that`s complete
BmG
I`ve got my life and you got yours
ADAGA
but in the night we meet
DGA
Well I can`t wait till the sun goes down and lay myself to sleep
DGA
I forget about the real life in a dream world incomplete
DGA
I fall through my mattress up to the clouds high above the earth
DGA
and I find myself looking for you through this wonderful universe
CGD
Flying in my sleep
CGD
they say it`s a gift but it`s a curse for me
CGD
flying and I see
CGA
broken dreams and tragedy
DGA
Oh I`m flying in my sleep
