I think I saw you in my sleep, Darling

I think I saw you in my dreams you were stitching up the seams on every broken promise that your body couldn't keep

I think I saw you in my sleep, Oh

I think I saw you in my sleep darling, I think I saw you in my dreams you were stitching up the seams on every broken promise that your body couldn't keep

I think I saw you in my sleep

I thought I heard the door open, oh, no, thoght I heard the door open but I only heard it close.

I thougt I heard a plane crashing, but now I think it was your passion snapping

I think you saw me confronting my fear it went up with the bottle and down with the beer and I think you aught to stay away from here, there are ghosts in the walls and they crawl in your head through your ears.

I think I saw you in my sleep lover I think I saw you in my dreams you were stitching up the seams on every broken promise that your body couldn't keep

I think I saw you in my sleep.

I know that one day you'll be sleeping darling, likey dreaming off the pain.

I hope youll hear me in the street lights humming , solftly breathing out your name

I know that even with the seams stitched tightly, darling scars will remain

I say we scrape them from each other and let them wash off in the rain, and when they run into the river, oh, no, let the water not complain

I swear that even with the distance slowly wearing out your name, your hands still catch the light the right way and our hearts still beat the same

And our hearts still beat the same.

Hey readers, this is one of my favorite songs by La Dispute. I DO NOT OWN THIS. I just want you people to read it. You should listen to the actual song which is called "Nobody not even the rain has such small hands" and it is a beautiful combo of the songs "Nobody not even the rain" and "Such Small Hands"
