Can't seem to turn aside

these thoughts are yours or mine

I stayed up all night to see the dawn



The air was cold, the sky was grey

With shades of light

I stayed up all night to see the dawn



She takes me under stormy waters

Cradles my head as sleep comes on

I'll drown in her eyes, dream in daylight

And wakes again in her twilight



She left to write more silly words

She doesn't know

I stayed up all night to see the dawn



Awake too long my skin will crawn

It's serpentine

I've been up all night to see the dawn



She takes me under stormy waters

Cradles my head as sleep comes on

I'll drown in her eyes, dream in daylight

And wakes again in her twilight



Alarm bells ring, it's nearly nine

I'm too alive

I've been up all night to see the dawn



Defences dropped, I'm so aware

Of passing time

I been up all night to see the dawn



I'll be submerged in passing tides as senses

Fade into the night

I stayed to see her dawn



She takes me under stormy waters

Cradles my head as sleep comes on

I'll drown in her eyes, dream in daylight

And wakes again in her twilight
