I'm Only Sleeping (take 1)
(take 1)
["I'm Only Sleeping", take 1.]

When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (Float up stream)

Please, don't wake me, no, don't shake me
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping

Everybody seems to think I'm lazy
I don't mind, I think they're crazzy
Running everywhere at such a speed
Till they find there's no need (There's no need)

Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time
Lying here and staring at the ceiling
Waiting for a sleepy feeling

Please, don't wake me, no, don't shake me
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time
Lying here and staring at the ceiling
Waiting for a sleepy feeling

Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping
