4.30 am I'm awake again,
singing to the dark through open eyes.
While dreaming i see only you and me
stuck between desire and compromise.
If i said i want you back i'd be a liar,
there's nothing left of us to long for any more.
But inside the ashes burns an andless fire,
and every night i can't help reaching out for more.
And i can't sleep, you're so far away from me,
and i can't sleep, and i can't sleep. (x2)
You're leaving these scars scattered round my hearth,
a road map of the places you have been.
But i can't escape, can't wash this away,
when love has burned your mark so deep within.
If i said i want you back i'd be a liar,
there's nothing left of us to long for any more.
But inside the ashes burns an endless fire,
and every night i can't help reaching out for more.
And i can't sleep, youre so far away from me,
and i can't sleep, and i can't sleep. (x6)
Back
