Close your eyes
And I will be swimming
Lullabies fill your room
And I will be singing
Singing to only you
Don't forget I'll hold your head
Watch the night sky fading red

But as you sleep
And no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet
I'll keep you from sinking
Don't you wake up yet
'Cause soon I'll be leaving you
Soon I'll be leaving you
But you won't be leaving me

In the car
The radio leaves me searching for your star
A constellation of frustration
Driving hard
Singing my thoughts back to me
Like watching heartache on TV

But as you sleep
And no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet
I'll keep you from sinking
Don't you wake up yet
'Cause soon I'll be leaving you
Soon I'll be leaving you
But you won't be leaving me

Don't forget I'll hold your head
Watch the night sky fading red

But as you sleep
And no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet
I'll keep you from sinking
Don't you wake up yet
'Cause soon I'll be leaving you
Soon I'll be leaving you
But you won't be leaving me
