Counting Stars Lyrics by Elephantis

Pining

2013

Why not just sleep forever, somewhere discreet?
I hold my hands to my chest
But I feel a steady beat
I feel a man who's blessed
Holes into the heavens, gently dotted in the sky
Gateways to my heart piercing through to where I lie
The only sound is a distant hum, as a city sleeps I'm overcome
In audience of such majesty, I wouldn't mind to die
Lay me down in the sleeping grass
As the summer air breathes slowly past
Your hand in mine we count the stars
Your hand in mine, this moment is ours
Away from the noise, away from it all
Staring into the sky no longer feeling so small
I hold my hands to my chest
I feel a steady beat
I know I'm blessed
As you lay me down, in the sleeping grass
For a moment all fear has come to pass
In this moment we sing as the stars come out
In this moment I see beyond any doubt
As you lay me down
I feel a surging beat
As you lay me down
Holes into the heavens, gently dotted in the sky
Gateways to my heart
The only sound, a distant hum, as a city sleeps I'm overcome
I'm overcome
In this moment we sing as the stars come out
In this moment I see beyond any doubt
