You're Still Awake

Текст песни

[Verse 1] You turn the key, the hallway’s still Your workday coat comes off the chair You’ve got the weight of miles to lose And sleep is waiting upstairs I leave my boots beside the door You ask me how the long day went I say, “I’m fine, just give me quiet” You smile like that’s not what you meant [Chorus] You’re still awake, I’m halfway gone You’ve got one more story, I’ve got one yawn Come closer, love, and let the whole day cease You’re still awake, I’m trying to sleep [Verse 2] The clock hands tip past half past ten You’re reading one more page again I turn my pillow to the cool side You say, “You haven’t heard the end” I love the way you fill the room Even when my eyes won’t stay So tell me just the final bit Then save the rest for break of day [Chorus] You’re still awake, I’m halfway gone You’ve got one more story, I’ve got one yawn Come closer, love, and let the whole day cease You’re still awake, I’m trying to sleep [Bridge] Your hand finds mine beneath the quilt Your voice grows soft, the tale runs thin I’m nearly lost to dreaming now Then you say, “One more thing…” [Final Chorus] You’re still awake, I’m halfway gone You’ve got one more story, I’ve got one yawn Come closer, love, and let the whole day cease You’re still awake, I’m trying to sleep [Outro] You’re still awake… I’m trying to sleep
