I wrote this song to honor anyone that’s lost a friend in their life. My sister shared that she recently had lost a friend of hers when we hung out one night and it inspired the idea of only being able to be with that friend again in your dreams. It felt sacred in that way.
[Verse 1]
Memories of you
And me
Stuck inside these pages
Every melody is you
[Chorus]
You left, yet I keep dreaming
Wanna stay inside
Get lost with you again
I knew it all along you are my oxygen
So let me stay asleep
So you come out at night
And keep me safe and sound
A hundred years and still
You hold me in your arms
And lonely and the old
I can't believe it now
So let me stay asleep
So you come out at night
I wanna stay asleep
[Post-Chorus]
I wanna stay asleep
So I can be close to you, close to you
I wanna stay asleep
You
You
[Verse 2]
Carrying the weight of you
Each colour has its meaning
Singing to the thoughts of us
[Chorus]
You left, yet I keep dreaming
Wanna stay inside
Get lost with you again
I knew it all along you are my oxygen
So let me stay asleep
So you come out at night
And keep me safe and sound
Can I go now?
Can I go now?
[Post-Chorus]
I wanna stay asleep
So I can be close to you, close to you
I wanna stay asleep
You
You
