[Chorus]
By the time you'll be leaving
Please make sure that I'm sleeping
Cause I don't think I'll bear the sight of you walk away
In the warm realm of dreaming
I will shelter this feeling
I will winter my sorrow till it no longer stays
[Verse 1]
Hush now, I don't want to listen
I won't let this become my memory
I hung my head and cried myself to sleep
So leave me here, alone in misery
I knew you would have to leave
So finally prepared, as much as I can be
I closed my eyes and cried myself to sleep
So leave me here, alone in misery
[Chorus]
By the time you'll be leaving
Please make sure that I'm sleeping
Cause I don't think I'll bear the sight of you walk away
In the warm realm of dreaming
I will shelter this feeling
I will winter my sorrow till it no longer stays
[Verse 2]
All you say will only make it worse
So I won't listen, not a single word
One day I will overcome remorse
I should've kept my secrets never told
Soon I'll slip into my dreaming
And no longer tortured I will find bliss
I refuse to see you leaving
So please watch your steps and walk away in peace
[Chorus]
By the time you'll be leaving
Please make sure that I'm sleeping
Cause I don't think I'll bear the sight of you walk away
In the warm realm of dreaming
I will shelter this feeling
I will winter my sorrow till it no longer stays
