TEITUR LYRICS - Sleeping With The Lights On

"Sleeping With The Lights On"



I've been haunted by this old ghost before

I want to hear your voice you know it's been so long

Like a dancing wave you balance on the shore

It would feel so good to see your face again



I still sleep with the lights on

I still stay up late alone

I still love another one

I still sleep with the lights on



We both understand we've got no way back

Our love was strange in a strange land

We got broken wings we were bound to fall

Until the sun comes up you can hold my hand



I still sleep with the lights on

I still stay up late alone

I still love another one

I still sleep with the lights on



Take it easy, take it slow

Let's just watch the tides they grow

The wind is coming from the side

We are sleeping in the light



Feel like waking up in your house some day

Or eating of your hand like a bird astray

But nothing's gonna change, we'll still be the same

We've said what's to say, nothing's buried nowhere



I still sleep with the lights on

I still stay up late alone

I still love another one

I still sleep with the lights on
