When I Watch You Sleeping

[Verse 1]
When I watch you sleeping
I see myself for what I am
And the secret I've been keeping
It's more than I can stand
Oh, I've tried, but can't ignore
What I know that Heaven saw

[Refrain]
That's why, when I watch you sleeping
I cry
Oh-oh
Mm-mm-mm
Oh-oh

[Verse 2]
There's a number in my pocket
That I should really lose
And your picture in my locket
Smiles so warm and true
Oh, my heart grows ever cold
At the thought of the lies I've told

[Refrain]
That's why, when I watch you sleeping
I cry
Oh-oh
Mm-mm-mm
Oh-oh

[Bridge]
If I confess
Would you forgive me?
Or if I pretend
Will this emptiness always be with me?

[Verse 3]
When I hear you talking
With your unquestioning faith
I stop our eyes from meeting
I turn my face away
Why should you pay for the crime
When all the blame is mine?

[Refrain]
That's why, when I watch you sleeping
I cry
Oh-oh
Mm-mm-mm
Oh-oh
