Understand I haven't slept for days
I've walked two weeks in unfamiliar ways
My lips are burned
My feet are black and blue
Through desert strife
Through the Nullarbor
I'm drinking sand
I'm up and hoping for more
I find you like a haze
Like a blue lagoon
I wish you'd come to me at night
You know I'm singing in my sleep
You're like some kind of mirage
An oasis pure and deep
Let me rest
Let me drink from your blue lagoon
Like shadow play or like a puppeteer
I see you
Move your silhouette so clear
Now I know you're not real
Can't love what you can't feel
Maybe I'm not the kind of guy
That you think you want to meet
Cause there's a look that's in my eye
That makes you think my love is cheap
Let me rest
Let me drink from your blue lagoon
The mist will clear sometime
On stage the lights are bright
The songs I sing won't bring you to me
You can't ask for much from a mannequin

I wish you'd come to me at night
You know I'm singing in my sleep
You're like some kind of mirage
An oasis pure and deep
Maybe I'm not the kind of guy
That you think you want to meet
Cause there's a look that's in my eye
That makes you think my love is cheap
Let me rest
Let me drink from your blue lagoon
Let me rest
Let me drink from your blue lagoon
