lyrics

I will try and sleep tonight
You're the one I won, so try
To be left alone by the flesh and bone
That want you by their side

I slept on my back until you woke me up
Now I can't sleep anymore
Awake in my bed
The rest that I've lost adds up our time from before
You lie awake too, restless and warm
Your body pressed up against mine
Cool to the touch, your fingertips dance
They move, they fall, they shine

At unreasonable hours I wake from my bed
Slowly pacing around
I sit at the table, drink water, and breathe
Your sleeping is the only sound
Your unmoving eyelids are closed tight and yawning
Still tired from the night before
From the dawn of your slumber, they're open and aching
Touching the sunlight once more
