October Nights
Yellowcard · One for the Kids
You came and cuddled next to me
Our noses brushed so close
I wished it was our souls
Drifting off to sleep
I could hear the little snores you made
Watching eyes shut tight
Like doors to something sweeter, where you rest
Tear me off a piece of blanket
Keep me warm and we can make it
Here's my heart, I'll let you break it
Touched your skin and I can't take it
Light will creep in soon
And I still haven't slept a wink
I wish the sun would hide its head
So I could watch you dream some more
I wanna watch you dream some more
I wanna watch you dream some more
I wanna watch you dream some more, girl
I wanna watch you
