Hurts - Sandman

Album: "Exile" (2013)

I spent these waking hours waiting for the sandman
I spent these waking hours looking for his master plan
I’ll wait ‘til morning ‘til he comes to my house
And he’ll give no warning when he’s knocking me out

So sing me to sleep tonight
And don’t bring me back to life

I spend these waking hours waiting for the sandman
I spend these waking hours looking for his master plan
He will be sorry when he comes to my house
I’ll show no mercy ‘til the lights go out

So sing me to sleep tonight
And don’t bring me back to life

We’re waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call [x4]

So sing me to sleep tonight
And don’t bring me back to life

We’re waiting for the sandman, but he never hears the call [x4]
