If Only Tonight We Could Sleep (The Cure cover) Lyrics
If only tonight we could sleep
In a bed made of flowers
If only tonight we could fall
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
And bury us deep
In his velvet arms
And the rain would cry
As our faces slipped away
And the rain would cry
Don't let it end...
{Solo}
In a bed made of flowers
If only tonight we could fall
In a deathless spell
If only tonight we could slide
Into deep black water
And breathe
And breathe...
With burning eyes like stars
And bury us deep
In his velvet arms
As our faces slipped away
And the rain would cry

awesome cover, very well executed
only one comment? this was done live for mtv icon - the cure.... it's fooking amazing! i love the cure and the deftones so when deftones did a cover of a real dark cure song you know it's gonna be wicked.
What does the crowd sing at the start?
in response to sp0kk "hey! CHINO!" that's the only words I hear. but it sounds like the crowd is humming the guitar riff
Where can I find this? I am a big fan of both bands. It's difficult to pull off a cure cover... I've heard this is good.
@NickTheStripper it was on their compilation album "B-Sides & Rarities"

This can be found on their B sides and rarities by the way. I love love love the Cure and Deftones so when I was watching this on VH1 when it first aired, I almost about shit my pants!! Just kidding. But I was very happy to see that they were able to do it, with Chino being such a big cure fan. I think they did the best job of a Cure song that night. All of the cover they do are amazing. How do they do it. God blessed them with such musical talent and blessed Chino with that one of a king voice.
