Rest your bones
Your day is done
Your gentle soul
On the run
Close your eyes
Hop skip and jump
On the lam
And over hump

You're never gonna get that far
You're never gonna reach part of your heart
You sweet dream sleeper
You never gonna reach that high
You never gonna see if love's nearby
You sweet heart keeper

With a heart like a hammer
Thump de dum thump thump thump
With a heart like a hammer
Thump de dum thump thump thump

Chase your dreams
Through your nightmares
Mean your words
And say your prayers
You left your mind
Go pale and numb
Locked your heart
Out in cold blood

You never wanna reach that high
You never wanna see if love's nearby
You sweet heart keeper
You're never gonna get that far
You're never gonna reach part of your heart
My sweet dream sleeper

With a heart like a hammer
Thump de dum thump thump thump
With a heart like a hammer
Thump de dum thump thump thump

Dreams aren't as weak as we are
The mind's not as weak as the heart
Sleep my little sweet among the stars, ohh

You're never gonna get that far
You're never gonna reach part of your heart
My sweet dream sleeper
You never wanna reach that high
You never wanna see if love's nearby
My sweet heart keeper

On the lam and you're in the dark
You're never gonna get close to your heart
My sweet dream sleeper
My sweet dream sleeper

With a heart like a hammer
Thump de dum thump thump thump
With a heart like a hammer
Thump de dum thump thump thump

Thump de dum thump thump thump
Thump de dum thump thump thump
Thump de dum thump thump thump
Thump de dum thump thump thump
Thump de dum thump thump thump
