"Sleep Talking" lyrics

"Sleep Talking"

Fall onto the ground
Do not make a sound
Can we be like children
Dancing in the crowd
Fall onto the ground
Do not make a sound
Can we
Can we
Can we be like children
Dancing in the crowd

Sleeping side by side
Our fingers intertwined
We never seem to find the right things to say
When we are awake
I can not close your eyes
We be up so high
As if we're trying to hide
The things we'll never find out
Wish you would say
That we'll be ok

Our stomachs not in knots no more
Maybe I'm not everything you got no more
I used to listen to your heartbeat while you're dreaming softly
I wish you would have told me that you do not know me
I wish you would have spoke before our fingers broke

10:30pm your dreaming begins
With no worries and stories of life way back when
When your sister would kiss you and tell you she miss you
I'm sorry
I'm sorry that that had to end

11:30 you're speaking slowly
You say you're lonely
You say you wish that you could hold me
If I would not pretend that I needed him
12 oh 10 if we would not pretend that we could be friends
But 11 if you would not extend your beautiful hand to touch me
1:30 you're so so lucky that I do not trust me
You only speak with your hands
So tell me how do I understand
How do I understand
But can can can
But can we, can we, can we be like children
Speaking right to me
You always ramble in your sleep
