Twilight
Sleep for Sleepers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We drove out of this town.
We looked back but quickly turned around.
We stayed until the moon had morning light, yet never still.
And it's everything, everything!
It's not a dream, not a dream!
We're safe away, away!
And it's the energy, energy!
Stop looking back, baby.
We're safe away, away!
We drove into the night.
The cold had met her breath, but we were fine.
And She said, "Boy let's get away. We can start a life in a different place."
And it's everything, everything!
It's not a dream, not a dream!
We're safe away, away!
And it's the energy, energy!
Stop looking back, baby.
We're safe away, away!
Isn't falling in love so simple?
It's so simple.
Let's be brave.
And baby it's the things they don't know that keep me wishing.
That keep me guessing.
And it's the energy, energy!




Stop looking back, baby.
We're safe away, away!
