Born Asleep

I started walking and I found myself Standing on your front porch again Went through the window of the empty house And I was standing where we used to stand Cheap candles burning on wax-stained carpets From when we tried to sip champagne You never liked it, so you'd spit it out And we'd sit and listen to the rain But now you're gone Can I see you again? You were born asleep Looking blue in the end Imagine meadows of egg-white poppies As I led you on walking blind You turned to me asking how much longer So I handed you a dandelion You blew the seeds waiting patiently Til the moment stopped and slowly died Shadows casting as you turn your back This could be our last goodbye But now you're gone Can I see you again? You were born asleep Looking blue in the end But now you're gone Can I see you again? You were born asleep Looking blue in the end I remember when you cut your lip Sippin' on a soda can And the time when you fell and tripped Screamin' at the ice cream man I turned so red when you busted your head Tried to cover up my crooked smile I was only teasing, then you stopped breathing Now you won't be going home tonight But now you're gone Can I see you again? You were born asleep Looking blue in the end But now you're gone Can I see you again? You were born asleep Looking blue in the end Ain't comin' home tonight Ain't comin' home tonight Ain't comin' home tonight Ain't comin' home Ain't comin' home tonight Ain't comin' home tonight Ain't comin' home tonight Ain't comin' home Ain't comin' home tonight (I ain't comin' home) Ain't comin' home tonight Ain't comin' home tonight (I ain't comin' home) Ain't comin' home tonight Ain't comin' home
