When I was young I was often told
Somewhere in the world there were rivers of gold
Everyone was happy and the air was sweet
True love came to sweep you off your feet
I followed that dream to this very day
Funny how it never turned out that way
Well it’s high time I let sleeping dogs lie
I believed everything I was told
I been made and I been sold
So far up the river I lost the track
They stole my heart and never gave it back
I been misunderstood I can’t deny
Until I saw the light shining in your eye
Well it’s high time I let sleeping dogs lie
Well it’s high time I let sleeping dogs lie
Sooner or later you got to face the facts
Lay it all down and learn to relax
There’s a time for the truth and a time to cry
A time to live and a time to die
Love caught me out in my defeat
I feel joy every time we meet
Well it’s high time I let sleeping dogs lie
Well it’s high time I let sleeping dogs lie
