Ooh ooh oh Has it been a day or a week? As my eyes begin to close I am walking in my sleep Living in a state in between Do the signs begin to show See the eyes fare in the dark As they Glow As they Glow These dreams under my pillow In the twilight of these white nights These dreams under my pillow In the twilight of these white nights Of these white nights(x3) Ooh oh oh Something is about to be born There's a restlessness in me Keeps me up until the dawn There is no silence I will keep following the sirens There is no silence I will keep following the sirens These dreams under my pillow In the twilight of these white nights These dreams under my pillow In the twilight of these white nights Of these white nights(x3) Ooh oh oh These dreams under my pillow In the twilight of these white nights These dreams under my pillow In the twilight of these white nights Of these white nights(x4) Ooh oh oh
