If Only Tonight We Could Sleep Lyrics - The Cure
Review The Song (1)
If only tonight we could sleep
In a bed made of flowers
If only tonight we could fall
In a deathless spell
If only tonight we could slide
Into deep black water
And breathe
And breathe...
Then an angel would come
With burning eyes like stars
And bury us deep
In his velvet arms
And the rain would cry
As our faces slipped away
And the rain would cry
Don't let it end...
In a bed made of flowers
If only tonight we could fall
In a deathless spell
If only tonight we could slide
Into deep black water
And breathe
And breathe...
Then an angel would come
With burning eyes like stars
And bury us deep
In his velvet arms
And the rain would cry
As our faces slipped away
And the rain would cry
Don't let it end...

Robert Smith, Cure mastermind, has always had a way of writing the most visually vivid images in word. With "Only Tonight.." he didn't disappoint, citing beautiful imagery. With the fluidity and hypnotizing guitars and the Moroccan influenced drum beats, this track is stunningly perfect and beautiful.
Anyone who has ever experienced those moments of pure bliss in infatuation - the mystique of a new relationship, will immediately relate. Though the words are few, they are so profound.
