Midnight Memoirs

by The Vineyard

/
1.
Take me back Take me back to the springtime Draw a line Draw a line in the sand before your eyes Close your eyes Close your eyes 'cause it's bedtime Say goodnight We'll say goodnight before the pages start turn
2.
Docks 02:38
Moonlight flies under hazel skies Climb downstairs out into the air You'll never see it coming The journey of the night Shadows play as we slip away Take my hand, won't you take my hand? You'll never see it coming The journey of the night Now we're by the ocean Dreaming on the docks and waves We're even closer to a place of rest We're even closer to the breeze You never saw it coming
3.
I dream with care because they come to life And I can't tell if you're really here tonight So many hours catching conversations in your head Planning apologies I would have said But even if I wish upon a star Our story was gonna end Our journeys crossed and we hold our memoirs Our lives continue from afar I dream with care because you come to life I'll find you staring off into the night And I can tame the fire's light And I can see new life ignite But even if I wish upon a star Our story was gonna end Our journeys crossed and we hold memoirs Our lives continue from afar So hush, my darling, it's going to be alright

Run 03:42
I need to see you run away I need to see the sun come up I need to see you lying there I need to see that cold, dark mist beyond me I need to see the sun come up I need to see you run away Watch you run away Away from me I need to see the sun go down Over your hometown Until it's gone Don't let me run away (Why'd you let me run away?) I need to see you run away Watch you run away Away from me I need to see the sun go down Over your hometown Until it's gone

Steady Feet 01:15
So I ran because I couldn't breathe Putting one foot farther than one foot should ever be Steady feet, the race begun I had a dream when I was young That you would be the last one that I'd keep But I was naïve and I was young I sang a song that had been sung But I could never find the time to sleep So I ran because I couldn't breathe Putting one foot farther than one foot should ever be
6.
The Coast 02:54
Your hand around my neck Like a cloud of weightless water Dip your hands in the air Let your thoughts flutter faster Look and see what you'll find Tangled up in constellations Forget the road map this time Pick and choose our destinations I will be the coast that you return to And I will scare the ghosts that try to haunt you They say it's really hard To pick up a million pieces But when we're left in the dark We turn on lights and flip the pages The cameras catch all our faults I can't promise to be perfect I will be the coast that you return to And I will scare the ghosts that try to haunt you Wouldn't it be easier to hear the rhythms our hearts make when we are not walking away? Wouldn't it be easier to hear the rhythms our hearts make when we are now walking away? I will be the coast that you return to And I will scare the ghosts that try to haunt you Fade away They fade away
7.
Goodnight 03:42
Don't you fall asleep, before I tuck you in at night It goes away It goes away in waves And comes back tomorrow
8.
And Farewell 01:05
Fare thee well my darling Sleep all through the night
