Before I Sleep Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, ghosts keep whispering
Oh, the feather of a raven's wing turned white by the birch tree
Ooh, this chill, when it gonna leave my bones?
Take the ache so I can go
And be washed in the wilderness

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, carry my body 'cross the frozen ground
While the moon burns bright and the fire fades out

[Chorus]
I got miles and miles to go before I sleep
Before I can feel anything, before I'm free
I got miles and miles to go before I sleep

[Verse 2]
Wind blows, covers every single track
If I wanted to, I couldn't go back
Oh, I just keep stumbling
Oh, and it's a stinging kiss facing unforgiving winds
Feel the cold, it's creeping in, oh
And I just keep stumbling on

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, carry my body 'cross the frozen ground
While the moon burns

[Chorus]
I got miles and miles to go before I sleep
Before I can feel anything, before I'm free
I got miles and miles and miles

[Bridge]
Til the dark gives way to dawn
Til the winter, can't hold on
I'll crawl til I can walk, til I run

[Chorus]
I've got miles and miles to go before I sleep
And I've got miles and miles to go before I weep
Before I can dream or feel anything
I got miles and miles to go before I sleep
Oh, before I can feel anything, before I'm free
I got miles and miles to go before I sleep
Before I sleep
