AT LEAST WHILE I’M ASLEEP

You found me swaying in the shadows
Watching lovers dance out on the floor
My life was rescued in that moment
I thought I knew what love would have in store

Yet the years have made you restless
For all the carefree days you once knew
I’m so afraid you’ll be leaving
Afraid there’s nothing else that I can do, that I can do…

CHORUS:
AT LEAST WHILE I’M ASLEEP
MY HEART IS AWAKE
YOUR BEAUTY DRIFTS SO SOFTLY
THROUGH MY DREAMS
AND WHEN THE STARS ALL SHINE
ALL YOUR LOVE IS MINE
ENDLESSLY
AT LEAST WHILE I’M ASLEEP

We always used to say “I Love You”
Now we hardly speak much anymore
Our time together was so cherished
Now our love’s so easy to ignore

Ghost of words we left unspoken
Wake me in the darkness next to you
My life is empty without meaning
Until I close my eyes to be with you, to be with you….

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Rescue me again say our broken hearts will mend
I can’t wake up to another moment trying to pretend

REPEAT CHORUS
