We wandered off like children in the woods And let the searchers come but never find us Tried to make a life among the trees While your dreams collected planes and cars and cities
You slipped away from me while I was sleeping To climb the tallest oak and see the lights Your dissatisfaction gave you questions Do you remember what the city sounded like? Do you remember what the city sounded like?
[Chorus:] So stay up with me, don't fall asleep Because we only have this moment once in our lives And next time we'll meet under city lights We're here tonight, so let's make it all it was meant to be
So I held you but the call was from inside And I knew I couldn't keep you if I tried But I watched as the distance spread, as the shadows grew And the longings came like wolves to devour you
[Chorus:] So stay up with me, don't fall asleep Because we only have this moment once in our lives And next time we'll meet under city lights We're here tonight, so let's make it all it was meant to be
So stay up with me, don't fall asleep Because we only have this moment once in our lives And next time we'll meet under city lights We're here tonight
So stay up with me, don't fall asleep Because we only have this moment once in our lives And next time we'll meet under city lights But we're here tonight, so let's make it all it was meant to be
Let's make it all it was meant to be Let's make it all it was meant to be
