lyrics

I counted sheep
As they jumped over your head
You were fast asleep
As you lay there in your bed

I thought, you were, all that I waited for
I thought, you were, all that I waited for
But you weren’t, but you weren’t.

Caught you in a dream
Running circles around the sun
Nothing is quite as it seems
Hearts lost and battles and won

I thought, you were, all that I waited for
I thought, you were, all that I waited for
But you weren’t, but you weren’t.

Such strange days,
Day bleeds into night and night bleeds into day
Hiding from all the monsters that live under your bed,
I think, this might be, the end

Morning light broke through
And then the darkness ran away
It always takes two
Or so I’ve been told and so they say

I thought, you were, all that I waited for
I thought, you were, all that I waited for
But you weren’t, but you weren’t.
But you weren’t, no you weren’t.
