 There's a shadow on the terrace,
 a snow dance for the living.
 There's heavy weather on the way,
 I heard it on the news.

 And life's a tough principal who won't reward the losers.
 Your name is on the tea-cup,
 there's nothing I can do.

                         F                   D            C
 But to wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
                    A#                             F
 and I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep.

 There are tears without the colour,
 a million seas without water
 an ocean full of people
 where shattered hearts can go.

 And love's a golden ripple where answers are so simplee
 but the explanations are very hard to do.

                         F                   D            C
 And I wish you'd think about me before you go to sleep
                    A#                             F
 and I wish you the best there is before you go to sleep.

 (repeat intro riff until song ends)

 Go to sleep.
