Half asleep but hardly sleeping In the night I heard her breathing all around Stopped the thoughts of razored ending All the things the gods been sending bring me down She spoke to me with words of velvet Showed me things that I’d not seen yet Said the things I’d wanted to say Yesterday she lay beneath me Came with kiss and came to save me Yesterday was easy ‘cause Yesterday gave reason to stay
I don’t want to leave you now I don’t want to leave…
Half asleep but hardly sleeping Universe was on my ceiling spinning ‘round All the stars and all the rockets All the hands that find my pockets common ground KK WENT TO UTAH BOUGHT HIMSELF A NEW CAR In a book I started reading Saw the things that I’d been feeling Closed my eyes and tore out the page Yesterday I saw her sleeping Killed the things upon my ceiling Yesterday was easy ‘cause Yesterday gave reason to stay
I don’t want to leave you now I don’t want to leave Yesterday gave reason to stay
Half asleep but hardly sleeping Sacrifices on my ceiling Close my eyes and burn down the stage Yesterday she lay beneath me Came with kiss and came to save me Yesterday was easy ‘cause Yesterday gave reason to stay
I don’t want to leave you now I don’t want to leave Yesterday gave reason to stay
