Stay Awake

Are we awake yet

Or only counting rain (mmm)

I keep a light inside my hand Boy: It shakes but it

stays

We walk where the old roads bend Boy: I know the way

(tah-ah) Both: Stay with me,

stay awake

Round and round the night won't break

Hold the thread Boy: Don't let it fall Both: We are small,

but we hear it all (ah-ah,

mmm)

Boy: I drew a door on the wall

Then pushed until it moved Boy: If I get scared,

will you call

I'll sing it back to you

Both: One small sound can carry through (ooh-ah)

Lay your head where the sound is slow

Boy: I can feel the floor

Both: Let it turn,

let it go

(mmm, ah)

Both: Stay with me,

stay awake Round and round the night won't break Hold the thread

Boy: Don't let it fall Both: We are small,

but we hear it all (ah-ah, ooh)

Boy:

What if morning forgets my name

Then I'll name it after you Boy: What if nothing feels the

same

We will make it new (la-la, ah)

Both: Stay with me,

stay awake

Round and round the night won't break Hold the thread Boy: Don't

let it fall

Both: We are small,

but we hear it all All:

We hear it all

(ah-ah, mmm)

Boy: Stay awake

Stay with me Both: We hear it all (mmm)
