Please stay awake while you’re away,
for I have seen where your dreams can stray.
Hang on for just one more day.
We will fall asleep when the sun comes up.
Our perfect basement and a Labrador retriever;
please tell me how I can keep you a believer.
I will write you love songs so that you can sing along,
and we will fall asleep in love again.
We will fall asleep when the sun comes up.
I don’t know why, but I keep this secret--
searching late at night for someone to hear this note.
Secrets that I keep are my only weakness;
if I tell you why will you swear to let it go?
(Let it go)
Ghost tones left for lost bones.
Stunted growth, never grown;
spit shine never truly shown.
You’ve got your ghost bones grown from lost tones,
stunted home growth, never flown alone,
spit shine never truly shown.
I don’t know why, but the feeling’s fleeting--
searching late at night for someone to feel like home.
Secrets that I keep are my only weakness;
if I tell you why will you swear to leave it alone?
(Leave it alone)
Ghost tones left for lost bones.
Stunted growth, never grown;
spit shine never truly shown.
You’ve got your ghost bones grown from lost tones,
stunted home growth, never flown alone,
spit shine never truly shown.
