I was headed for a close encounter She's eternal, spotless on my mind Sun burn on the battlefield Walking on the Mason Dixon line Soaking in a burned up journal Couple entries cut me down to size I could see the story ending Already written in her eyes
Don't fall asleep, don't fall asleep tonight
Don't fall asleep, don't fall asleep tonight
So I buried my convictions so deep Had to leave a map to get back home Rebel with a fear of flying It's time to try a new time zone And the coast of Marseilles calling Late at night I hear it in the wind In my dreams I'm always falling She asks me if I'm coming in
Don't fall asleep, don't fall asleep tonight
Don't fall asleep, don't fall asleep tonight
I'll keep you warm Someone to hold you if he won't I'll keep you warm Someone to hold you if he won't I know your so afraid Of frozen Note and wet parades I'll keep you warm Just going through the normal changes Just seeing what summers gonna bring If I had to do the whole thing over I wouldn't change a single thing
