Just lean against me and the paving rises
So that the Angel finds a place to land
Hugging a dog, a pillow and the silence
On a windy night you melt away, a star upon a palm of hand

Reprise: Only a watchman keeps the sky upon a rooftop
So nobody can put it out at night
Souls get together on the shores of dreamy twilight
White snowflakes dropping down from your eylashes.....

Only a watchman keeps a heart up on a rooftop
So nobody can put it out in deep
Souls get together on the shores of dreamy twilight
White snowflakes falling down from your eyelashes...

You just awake to hear the clock stop ticking
The hours for itself inside a midnight spring
You open up to see the snowstorm blow and cover
The engine and the station and the train

Reprise: Only a watchman keeps the sky upon a rooftop
So nobody can put it out at night
Souls get together on the shores of dreamy twilight
White snowflakes dropping down from your eylashes.....

Only a watchman keeps a heart up on a rooftop
So nobody can put it out in deep
Souls get together on the shores of dreamy twilight
White snowflakes falling down from your eyelashes...
