Sleep
Pop Sickle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How we love to sleep
At the close of day
When the joys of the day fade away and the memories sweet
Of the day repeat
In our dreams they creep
While we sleep, sleep, sleep
It seems that daytime was just made for laughter and song
Night time brings rest to the weary
Sooths all the hearts that are dreary
Leaves us alone with our day dreams
Brings back sweet golden love dreams while we sleep, sleep, sleep
How we love to sleep
At the close of day
When the joys of the day fade away and the memories sweet
Of the day repeat
In our dreams they creep
Pop Sickle's song Sleep is a lullaby that celebrates the joy and restfulness of sleep. The song describes how sleep provides a respite from the stresses of the day, allowing us to indulge in our dreams and memories. The opening lines of the song, "Sleep, sleep, sleep, how we love to sleep," emphasize the soothing and relaxing nature of sleep. The lyrics go on to describe how sleep helps us to process the events of the day by repeating memories and daydreams in our dreams.
The song also emphasizes the different moods of the day and how they affect our emotions. Daytime is associated with laughter and song, while evening brings romance to lovers. Night time, on the other hand, soothes the weary and the dreary, providing a calming and peaceful atmosphere in which to sleep.
