Bilingual
I've been awake for the longest time
Laying out in a tomb with you laid by my side
The morning gray 'round the blind
Day following day to make our life, all our lives
But don't wake the children
Don't wake the children
Just sit
Is this the mid-way or the end?
Hands over your heart
Do you sleep or just pretend?
I'd like to reach across the stone
Each wonderful day that we are flesh as well as bone
So don't wake the children
Don't wake the children
Just sit
We both let go and the silence fell
Who's following who?
We go so fast, I can't tell
Let's steal a day from 'morrow light
Curl up in the dark and be all ears, be all eyes
So don't wake the children
Don't wake the children
Just sit
Don't wake the children
Don't wake the children
Just sit
Don't wake the children
Don't wake the children
Just sit
Don't wake the children
Don't wake the children
Just sit
We could take a day (We could take a day)
From 'morrow light
Just steal it out of the dark
We could take a day
From 'morrow light
Steal it out of the dark
We could take a day
Out of our lives
Steal it right out of the dark
We could take a day
Out of our lives
We could steal it right out of the dark
We could take a day
Out of our lives
We could steal it right out of the dark
We could take a day
Out of our lives
We could steal it right out of the dark
