"Eight Hours" lyrics

Bastille & Tyde Lyrics

"Eight Hours"

I got a version of you in my head
I don't wanna ruin it
I don't wanna ruin it
I got a version of you in my bed
I don't wanna ruin this
There ain't no undoing this

Sleeping
Why would we go dreaming?
Why would we go anywhere?
Let's fight the daylight
I can't get my head right
Why would we go anywhere?

Oh, I'm not gonna shut my eyes
Sleeping means I'm missing everything
And that's eight hours without you
No, I'm not gonna sleep tonight
'Cause why'd I wanna dream of anything?
And that's eight hours without you

And I don't need eight more hours without you
No, I don't need eight more hours without you

Tossing, turning our way through the sheets
Hit me like a sugar rush
So no dreams can come for us
Tumbling into way more little deaths
Keeping it corporeal
Hold me tight to keep this real

Sleeping
Why would we go dreaming?
Why would we go anywhere?
Oh, let's fight the daylight
I can't get my head right
Why would we go anywhere?
Oh oh oh oh

I'm not gonna shut my eyes
'Cause sleeping means I'm missing everything
And that's eight hours without you
No, I'm not gonna sleep tonight
'Cause why'd I wanna dream of anything?
That's eight hours without you

And I don't need eight more hours without you
No, I don't need eight more hours without you

These nights, never wanna let go
These nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come?
Knows what dreams may come

These nights, never wanna let go
These nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come?
Knows what dreams may come

These nights, never wanna let go
These nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come?
Knows what dreams may come

These nights, never wanna let go
These nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come?
Knows what dreams may come

These nights, never wanna let go (Eight more hours without you)
These nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come?
Knows what dreams may come (I don't need, no)

These nights, never wanna let go (Eight more hours without you)
These nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come?
(I don't need, no)
