Lyrics
Now that it’s 4:30 in the morning, and I can’t quite get to bed -
I’m noticing the stars tonight, are only in my head.
But I’ll shoot up just like I’m one of them, if it makes me feel all right.
I think I’d do about anything if I could just get some sleep tonight.
Save a drink for me tonight
We’ll stay by the fire; I’ll make everything alright.
Stay awake with me tonight
Your weight in gold, it seems, was much too small a price
If only I could sleep this feeling off.
Turn your blind eyes close to me, til the river runs to sea
as time spent slowing, like dead grass growing.
Don’t say anything, And forget everything.
You were there at the start of it, I’ll be alone when it ends.
Save a drink for me tonight
We’ll stay by the fire; I’ll make everything alright.
Stay awake with me tonight
Your weight in gold, it seems, was much too small a price
If only I could sleep this feeling off.
