Lyrics
When Love Falls Asleep
(from the cd ?Little Coma? released in 2004)
Well I?ve been sorting the pieces,
Pretty soon I?ll have a collection of myself
And I will send them back to you
And you can take your time
Decide which ones you would like to possibly keep for yourself
Sorting the pieces
And that?s the thing about the truth
It can change depending on how close or tight you hold them to you
And you can call it fabrication,
You can call it a memory,
It won?t matter much believe me they will both feel time
When you?re sorting the pieces,
When were sorting the pieces
And some are painful, some are beautiful,
Some just stand there, alone and dutiful
When love falls asleep, between the thin sheets,
Of promises, promises, promises,
Some are so deep, you can almost hear them speak
Thought and dust under the bed,
Still the linger on inside my head
They?ll linger on inside my bed,
When love falls asleep,
Between the thin sheets,
Of promises,
Somehow they never met me
Promises somehow they never left you,
Promises somehow they never met me, promises
Somehow they never let you love
And I?m sorting the pieces, sorting the pieces.
