Kommer til meg i søvne
La meg sove hundre år
Jeg flyter på larmen
Fra metallmonster utenfor
Du smyger deg inn
Rir på drømmen min
Vi styrer som gærne
Raser rundt og rundt og rundt
Du kom gjennom et hull i himmelen
Og blir en liten stund
Vi hviler på gulvet
Sitter på Buddhavis
Og faller fritt fall
Jeg duger ikke uten du-du-du-duger, jeg duger ikke uten du (2x)
Jeg brer ut en spikermatte
Når du tar av
Kråkene samles og ser på
I trærne i en kirke uten tak
De ser en gammel gutt
Som fikk vinger til slutt
Duger ikke uten du-du-du-duger, jeg duger ikke uten du (4x)
Det var der og da det
Det var der og da det (Det var engler her)
