"Sleep Easy" lyrics

"Sleep Easy"

I've been reminiscing on the feeling that your heart gets
When you step right up to the waters edge
And dive in, head first, free fall to love
You float back up to put the air back in your lungs

Because you didn't know, how deep you'd go
Before you hit the ground running and you're on your own
That's just the way it goes

I just want to sleep easy tonight, no more phones in my eyes
And wake up to the morning light
Feel it all over again, settle in to home again
Wake up to a morning light

A couple things that you and I are gonna disagree on
You know that I'm a Taurus, so its gonna be strong
I know you love the sunrise but my eyes don't rise at the same time
So I hope you don't mind. I'm gonna drift off pretty easy tonight
Because I live an up and down life just trying to do it all right
Just trying to do you all right

I just want to sleep easy tonight, no more bags on my eyes
And wake up to the morning light
Feel it all over again, settle in to home again
Wake up to a morning light

I know that I can be hard sometimes
I've never been one to put it all out on the line
These days, are getting kind of heavy, got to batten down the hatches
To keep the head steady

I don't mean to be rude, and I swear its not you
I've just got a few things that I need to do
So if you don't mind, I'm going to drift off pretty easy tonight

I just want to sleep easy tonight, no more bags on my eyes
And wake up to the morning light
Feel it all over again, settle in to home again
Wake up to a morning light
