Sleep of the Good by Cliff Richard Lyrics

No-one can touch you now, no
No-one can harm you, you're finally free
Your passion all spent
Your savage intent

To break away meant to break me
Oh Cathy, the game you played
Oh Cathy, you've paid
I've been betrayed

I try to find the words to justify
All that you've put me through
What gave you the right
To leave me?

When you, you knew I loved you
I pray you find some peace at last
The sleep of the good
If only I could

Only my life remains cold
This is a winter will never know spring
As time and again
I try to contain
The anger and pain that you bring
Oh Cathy, my reckless one
Oh Cathy, it's done
The night's begun

You lie so close, so calm, so motionless
I can almost believe
That you're still in my arms
Within me

So near to hear I loved you
I pray I find some peace at last
The sleep of the good
If only I could
