Sing Me to Sleep
Alan Walker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Remind me how it feels to hear your voice
Your lips are movin', I can't hear a thing
Livin' life as if we had a choice
Anywhere, anytime
I would do anything for you
Anything for ya
Melodies stuck inside your head
A song in every breath
Sing me to sleep now
Sing me to sleep
Oh, won't you sing me to sleep now?
Sing me to sleep
Remember me now, time cannot erase
I can hear your whispers in my mind
I've become what you cannot embrace
Our memory will be my lullaby
Sing me to sleep now
Sing me to sleep
Oh, won't you sing me to sleep now?
Sing me to sleep
Any-anytime
I would do-do-do-do-do
Time away
Yesterday-day-day-day
Any-anytime
I would do-do-do-do-do
Time away
Yesterday-day-day-day

Wait a second, let me catch my breath
Give me a moment to collect myself
Remind me how it feels to hear your voice
Help me recollect the sensation of hearing your voice
Your lips are movin', I can't hear a thing
You are speaking, but I am not listening
Livin' life as if we had a choice
Existing as though we have control

Everywhere and always
I would do anything for you
I am willing to go to any lengths for you
Anything for ya
I would do anything at all for you
Yesterday got away
The past has slipped through our fingers
Melodies stuck inside your head

A song in every breath
A melody in every exhalation

Sing me to sleep
Comfort me with a lullaby
Oh, won't you sing me to sleep now?
Please, asking to be sung to sleep
Remember me now, time cannot erase
Don't forget me, time cannot wipe me away

Always and everywhere
I would do-do-do-do-do
I am willing and able
Time away
The days that have passed
Yesterday-day-day-day
The day before today
