Tonight I Shall Sleep (With A Smile On My Face) - Sarah Vaughan

So dark this peacefull night

Through cloudy skies the moon shines bright

I hear your voice so softly sighing, in need of warmth tonight

Remorseless I see your face

So tearfull and yet full of rage

Please be still my love

Don’t make this any harder than it is

The animal in me is longing for your blood

But the human in me is longing for your love

I can’t decide if I’ll let you live tonight

I will hold both your hands and stare into your eyes

Can you decide if you’ll let me live tonight?

Just three simple words will keep me from dying inside

A blood lust euphoria

Forever I’ll be content

Just please be still my darling

Tonight we shall sleep again

What an angel decent

To sleep under this moon

All this hatred now felt

With razors I remove thee of your wings

Wipe away all the tears, for tonight all these blessings shall be dreams of

darkness come true

I’m yearning now

I’m yearning for this moon

The animal in me is longing for your blood

But the human in me is longing for your love

I can’t decide if I’ll let you live tonight

A blood lust euphoria

Forever I’ll be content

Just please be still my darling

Tonight we shall sleep again
