Sahara Snow

Everynight i go to sleep, you're there baby inside my head
What's the secret that you keep
It's not fair baby, i toss in bed
One night i had the strangest dream
Dreamt i made love to you
You better believe it, it felt so real

Spent the night in the sea of love
It's crazy the attraction that i feel, now baby
It hit like a heart attack, i feel in my soul
But the train's running off the track and i can't get control
Sleepwalking in the house of love
I heard saint peter was calling
As i was making love to you
Dreamed that i'd died and gone to heaven
I woke up in your arms
Dreamed that i died and gone to heaven
Nothing now will ever be the same

Saint peter call me back again
Take me there baby, you got me good
I want to hear his choir of angels sing
I say a prayer baby, i knock on wood
That every night i wake up restless from the heat
You got to believe i never had such a physical dream baby
It's built on sacred ground, your image in my head
So i lay my body down on the alter of my bed
I wait in the house of love and hope for sleep to come calling
So i'll be making love to you
Dreamed that i'd died and gone to heaven
I woke up in your arms
Dreamed that i died and gone to heaven
Nothing now will ever be the same

Dreamed i'd died and gone to heaven
Dreamed my life was through
Dreamed i'd died and gone to heaven, woke in love with you
It hit like a heart attack, it came from out of nowhere
But the train's running off the track on a fragile wing and a prayer
Sleepwalking in the house of love i heard saint peter was calling
As i was making love to you

Lust shows her pretty face and cupid hits his mark
And i have no time to say
I am not ready for this
Insipid smile on my face and a dumb remark

I trip, slip, slide over the precipice
I got the right map baby but the wrong direction
I'm staring at the tv set trying to right this wrong
I didn't cast my vote, it was a fixed election
Somebody tripped the switch and the light came on

Now, i can't make it stop
I cant make it stop
I cant make it stop

It's true and i can't explain
Just what makes her so different

I should feel wonderful, but i don't feel wonderful
And i don't want to carry this weight myself
You tell me i look bad
Hey what do you mean by that
Cause i'm addicted and i can't help myself

My wing and a prayer nose dives into the street
And they hang the "disturbed" sign outside my door
I twist my fingers and i shuffle my feet
My friend dr. robert said there is no cure
I got the right rat baby but the wrong dissection
I'm staring at the tv set trying to write this song
I didn't seek this mountain or this insurrection
I just entered somewhere beautiful i don't belong

I can't make it stop
I can't make it stop
I can't make it stop

It's true and i can't explain
Just what makes her so different

I don't want this fucked up pearl
I cannot take this she must be the one

The alarm goes off, another monday morning
Just one more time you wake up in this mess
And baby it scares you but you catch yourself
You do whatever you do to face the test

I know you feel alone in this great big world machine
It's crazy, but maybe there's a soul somewhere out there
Who's just like you now what are you waiting for
Baby don't mourn what might have been
Here's the only world we're living in

This is the modern world, this is the modern world
This is the modern world, and this is all it's going to be
Living in the modern world

Yeah, the telephone rings, another faceless caller
You're not a soul you're just a number
You're looking at families living on the street
Where mama can't buy her baby enough to eat

We all feel alone, in this great big world machine
But baby, just maybe listen to your heart
I don't know just what you're waiting for
Cause baby here's just where you begin
In the only world we're living in

This is the modern world, this is the modern world
This is the modern world, and this is all it's going to be,
Living in the modern world

Tonite, you cried out i heard your call
From the child inside your soul
An sos heaven help the sender
And tonite i wish we weren't so far apart
Because the beating of this heart is telling you
You can't surrender

I know it's hard for you, you know it's hard for me
If you can keep believing there's a place
I know someday we'll be

Somewhere in the silent morning
Somewhere out beyond the sea of blue
There is a dream that's calling
Somewhere there is a place for me and you
Me and you

So near, i watch the city lights go out
And i know without a doubt that you and i
Tonite somehow have spoken
And here, across the miles so far away
I cross my heart and pray that a promise made will not be broken

The words are in my head, but they're hard for me to say
Sometimes alone the power of what i feel can take my breath away

And if the wait's too long there
Let your heart be strong there
And may the love reign over you

(when things get hot) oh my love
(when things get hot) i know you like the heat
(when things get hot) when things get much too much
(when things get hot)

So tell me why do you always run from me baby, like you do
Cause where there's smoke there's fire
I tell you love will never stay
When you're playing the games you play
Suzanne, i understand maybe you're scared to see
Just what your life really means to me
Suzanne, what will it take to make you stop giving up on love
When things get hot, suzanne

(when things get hot) oh my love
(when things get hot) do you keep your cool?
(when things get hot) things get too hot to touch
(when things get hot)

So tell me what are you holding out for now baby, like you do
I'm walking on that wire
How can i get through, there must be something more than i can do
Suzanne, i understand maybe you're scared to see
Just what your life really means to me
Suzanne, what will it take to make you stop giving up on love
When things get hot, suzanne

I see the look in your eyes,
I don't know why you fight it
You work so hard to deny, it's crazy
Why do you play it safe
Baby wake up and have some faith

Baby i tell you true all the love will come back to you
Suzanne, this can't be all there is to this
Suzanne, i'll give so much to you if you don't resist
Suzanne, i understand maybe you're scared to see
Just what your life really means to me
Suzanne, what will it take to make you stop giving up on love
When things get hot, suzanne

If i see one more smiling face in a magazine
If i see one more pretty girl on my tv screen
Everybody's pretending, future's burning real bright
All good children go to heaven, god's still on our side
He's gonna make it up to you, he's gonna make it up to you
Baby in this life

So much pain in the faces that we wear behind the smiles
We keep too much inside, way too much inside
Baby stand up and be the one to testify

Is everybody happy? no!
Is everybody happy? no!
Is everybody happy? i don't think so

If i hear one more lover promise me everything
If i hear one more lonesome ol' cowboy start to sing
Everybody's elected to carry the party song
You can't be too protected baby, you can't be too strong
Never let'em get to you, never let'em get to you
Baby in this life
We live in a quiet kind of desperation here
We lock it up inside, lock it up inside
Baby get on up and be the one to testify
Tell me how you feel

Is everybody happy? no!
Is everybody happy? no!
Is everybody happy? i don't think so

Is everybody happy? no!
