Lyrics:

When I watch you sleeping
I see myself for what I am
And the secret I've been keeping
It's more than I can stand
Oh, I've tried, but can't ignore
What I know that Heaven saw

That's why, when I watch you sleeping
I cry
Oh-oh
Mm-mm-mm
Oh-oh

There's a number in my pocket
That I should really lose
And your picture in my locket
Smiles so warm and true
Oh, my heart grows ever cold
At the thought of the lies I've told

That's why, when I watch you sleeping
I cry
Oh-oh
Mm-mm-mm
Oh-oh

If I confess
Would you forgive me?
Or if I pretend
Will this emptiness always be with me?

When I hear you talking
With your unquestioning faith
I stop our eyes from meeting
I turn my face away
Why should you pay for the crime
When all the blame is mine?

That's why, when I watch you sleeping
I cry
Oh-oh
Mm-mm-mm
Oh-oh
