I did this acoustic and had a sensitive song featuring polar bears.. Electric its completely different about surreal delirium in waking life.

When I Was Sleeping
Words and Music by Michael Silverstone
2013 Mr. Silverstone Music/ASCAP

I was just discussing with a friend of mine
what I overheard when I was sleeping

I could not tell you what we talked about
I wouldn’t know, cause I was sleeping

And it feels that
I ‘ve been lonely although
I chose it
and I won't deny that
but I know I can stand
a little bit more

I battle on again
to be contended with
I used up my will while I was sleeping
oh yeah


I am eager just
to pull my weight again
I looked all around but they were sleeping

It’s not reprehensible
to be somewhat sensible
allowing events go that way

I didn’t want to care
But you were everywhere
I can’t predict
what I might say

Ohh ohh. . .

[blistering Statocaster solo]

I went along with what you said you’d do
I dreamt alone when I was sleeping

I watched the night
It all felt right
I won’t return the way I came

I give for free
I take my time
Ohh, my life is mine

Ohh, when I was sleeping
I was sleeping

I was sleeping
when I was sleeping

I was sleeping
when I was sleeping

Ohhhh, yeah
ohhhh, yeah,
Ohhhh, oh
