AWAKE Lyrics by Kevin Hackett

AWAKE AFTER MIDNIGHT

2021

[Verse 1]
We were sleepless and far from home
A ceiling of stars aglow
Drawn into what could be
Cause you and I breathe
Light in the dark, you're all that I see
Colours in focus are left
All that I won't forget

[Chorus]
Now I'm awake inside, but my eyes are closed
And we'll chase the night in the violet storm
Till the dawn breaks out
And all is sound
Now I'm awake inside, but my eyes are closed
And we'll chase the night in the violet storm
Till the dawn breaks out
And all is sound

[Verse 2]
Woo
Lost in the day that we started
My love shouting from underneath
Rushed in but I couldn't stop it
Slow down the nights and now autumn seems
So far away, our time to waste
In a quiet light outside we lay
But I know not for long
Four more nights till we fight the fall
August always ends, all of the time
Our love will last more than I can guess
I feel alive, ignited my step
Tried to hold it back
I was on fire when you told me that
You know there's something more

[Pre-Chorus]
Before we fall, I know I'm over my head
But you're the moment I'd spend
For all this time we have
When we leave and tides will roll back

[Chorus]
Now I'm awake inside, but my eyes are closed
And we'll chase the night in the violet storm
Till the dawn breaks out
And all is sound
Now I'm awake inside, but my eyes are closed
And we'll chase the night in the violet storm
Till the dawn breaks out
And all is sound

[Outro]
Trace my bones, race my thoughts
All the reasons I am yours
Place unknown, I'm headed for
All the reasons I am yours
Trace my bones, race my thoughts
All the reasons I am yours
Place unknown, I'm headed for
All the reasons I am yours
