"The 80's Song" lyrics

"The 80's Song"

I've been up at this all night long
I've been drowning in my sleep
I've prayed for your safe place
And it's time for us to leave

Time is running, is running on empty and the gas is running out
I've decided that tonight is the night
That I set love aside
Speed ahead this seems to be the place
I've seen this once before
Planned perfection sought in my dreams
Hoping this would take you home

My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
So kiss me one last time

Around this turn where the cross will cast your shadow
The people will all gather
To remember such a day where the flames grew as high as trees
And the world stopped for you and me

My knuckles have turned white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
Shut your eyes

My knuckles have turned white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
Shut your eyes

I will now bring new meaning to the word alone
Endless nights of dreaming of life
And the days we should have spent here

Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep
Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep

Glass shatters and comes to a halt (Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)
I thought we'd be there by now (Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)
I thought it would be so much quicker than this (Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)

Pain has never been so brilliant (Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)
I made sure you were buckled in (Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)
Now you can walk hand in hand, hand in hand with him (Drowning in my sleep I'm drowning in my sleep)

My knuckles have turned white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
Shut your eyes

My knuckles have turned white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
Shut your eyes
