Mean Sleep

                                  [Lenny Kravitz]

What can we scrape together

With just the flesh as evidence

Handfuls of hate

And the bittersweet ambivalence



[Lenny Kravitz & Cree Summer]

Cause I am pushin' cobwebs

And I'm folding into myself



[Lenny Kravitz]

Who will find me under this mean sleep



[Cree Summer]

How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain ?

How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change ?



[Lenny Kravitz & Cree Summer]

I had a mean, mean sleep over you

And it hurts, hurts coming back to life



[Lenny Kravitz]

You could burn a thousand days

And I would need no other light

You could die a thousand ways

And I'd still love you back to life



[Lenny Kravitz & Cree Summer]

But my needs rising angry

And my loneliness like quicksand



Lenny Kravitz]

Who will find me under this mean sleep



[Cree Summer]

How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain ?

How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change ?



[Lenny Kravitz & Cree Summer]

I had a mean, mean sleep over you

And it hurts, hurts coming back to life

I had a mean, mean sleep over you

And it hurts, hurts coming back to life

I am lost to the longing

I am moulded by the memory



[Lenny Kravitz]

Had to shut down half my mind



[Lenny Kravitz & Cree Summer]

Just to still the space you left behind

Cause I am pushin' cobwebs

And I'm folding into myself



[Lenny Kravitz]

Who will find me under this mean sleep



[Cree Summer]

How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain ?

How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change ?



[Lenny Kravitz & Cree Summer]

I had a mean, mean sleep over you

And it hurts, hurts coming back to life



[Lenny Kravitz]

Coming back to life



[Cree Summer]

I had a mean sleep



[Lenny Kravitz & Cree Summer]

I had a mean, mean sleep over you

I had a mean sleep

And it hurts, hurts coming back to life 



[Lenny Kravitz]

Coming back to life



[Lenny Kravitz & Cree Summer]

I had a mean, mean sleep over you 

I had a mean sleep

And it hurts, hurts coming back to life 



[Lenny Kravitz]

Coming back to life yeah
