"Lines On The Floor" lyrics

"Lines On The Floor"

I awoke from a dream
And you sang me back to sleep
And all our luck weighed down on me like cotton sheets
As the morning light slowly breeched

Well I knew this day would come so long ago
It happened in a dream and I awoke
But I thank my lucky stars above for until now
They let it carry on somehow
Till the morning light
Shined through the blinds
Throwing lines on the floor

"I'll take you down" you cried
Take you down, down, down
My reply was "why, if you've got me now"
As the morning light lit the sky

Well I knew this day would come so long ago
It happened in a dream and I awoke
But I thank my lucky stars above for until now
They let it carry on somehow
Till the morning light
Shined through the blinds
Throwing lines on the floor

Well I knew this day would come so long ago
It happened in a dream and I awoke
But I thank my lucky stars above for until now
They let it carry on somehow
Till the morning light
Shined through the blinds
Throwing lines on the floor
