Jars Of Clay - Fall Asleep Lyrics
We wandered off like children in the woodsAnd let the searchers come but never find usTried to make a life among the treesWhile your dreams collected planes and cars and citiesYou slipped away from me while I was sleepingTo climb the tallest oak and see the lightsYour dissatisfaction gave you questionsDo you remember what the city sounded like?Do you remember what the city sounded like?[Chorus:]So stay up with me, don't fall asleepBecause we only have this moment once in our livesAnd next time we'll meet under city lightsWe're here tonight, so let's make it all it was meant to beSo I held you but the call was from insideAnd I knew I couldn't keep you if I triedBut I watched as the distance spread, as the shadows grewAnd the longings came like wolves to devour you[Chorus:]So stay up with me, don't fall asleepBecause we only have this moment once in our livesAnd next time we'll meet under city lightsWe're here tonight, so let's make it all it was meant to beSo stay up with me, don't fall asleepBecause we only have this moment once in our livesAnd next time we'll meet under city lightsWe're here tonightSo stay up with me, don't fall asleepBecause we only have this moment once in our livesAnd next time we'll meet under city lightsBut we're here tonight, so let's make it all it was meant to beLet's make it all it was meant to beLet's make it all it was meant to be
