The Cure: If Only Tonight We Could Sleep Meaning

If Only Tonight We Could Sleep Lyrics
If only tonight we could sleep
In a bed made of flowers
If only tonight we could fall

With burning eyes like stars
And...

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
