Next To You

I fell asleep at the edge of the yard With the nightingales and the broken cars In the hope that you'd find me there someday And musicians play at a bar across the street And their lonely patrons are on their feet But the night don’t give up that easy And somewhere in a desert another bomb fell And the architects they were giving them hell In the boat that they sailed in 'til morning [Chorus] But anytime I fall asleep next to you We turn off the lights and look up at the stars And a streetlight slightly flickers in the dark As I hear you breathing next to me [Verse 2] And millions of people keep checking their phones As a Labrador keeps licking the bone That it hid in the earth 5 years ago The director tells the actress to say her lines quick There ain’t no time here to overthink The world’s changed, and it’s changing so quickly And can’t we build a skyscraper 20 miles thick And fill it up with all the shit that we bought At the president’s impeachment sale [Chorus] But it’s alright when I fall asleep next to you We turn off the lights and look up at the stars And a streetlight slightly flickers in the dark As the morning creeps in softly Oh anytime I fall asleep next to you We turn off the lights and look up at the stars And a streetlight slightly flickers in the dark As I hear you breathing next to me
