Why not just sleep forever, somewhere discreet?

I hold my hands to my chest

But I feel a steady beat

I feel a man who's blessed

Holes into the heavens, gently dotted in the sky

Gateways to my heart piercing through to where I lie

The only sound is a distant hum, as a city sleeps I'm overcome

In audience of such majesty, I wouldn't mind to die

Lay me down in the sleeping grass

As the summer air breathes slowly past

Your hand in mine we count the stars

Your hand in mine, this moment is ours

Away from the noise, away from it all

Staring into the sky no longer feeling so small

I hold my hands to my chest

I feel a steady beat

I know I'm blessed

As you lay me down, in the sleeping grass

For a moment all fear has come to pass

In this moment we sing as the stars come out

In this moment I see beyond any doubt

As you lay me down

I feel a surging beat

As you lay me down

Holes into the heavens, gently dotted in the sky

Gateways to my heart

The only sound, a distant hum, as a city sleeps I'm overcome

I'm overcome

In this moment we sing as the stars come out

In this moment I see beyond any doubt
