Fall Asleep In Your Name

[Verse 1]
Coffee on the table
Steam drawing shapes in the air
You’re wearing that old sweater
Sitting cross-legged in the chair
You’re laughing at the movie
I’m stuck watching just your face
The world keeps playing scenes
But this is my favorite place
[Chorus]
I could fall asleep in your name
Wrapped in every letter
Every sound you say my way
I could spend forever
Tracing every little line
On your hands
On your face
If love is just a word
Then let me fall asleep in your name
[Verse 2]
Curtains breathing slowly
Street sounds fading far away
Your head against my shoulder
We talk circles ‘round the day
You tell me all your worries
I keep them safely in my chest
Like folded paper secrets
You’re the reason I can rest
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Leave the dirty dishes
Let the messages all wait
We can chase the quiet
Let the minutes slip away
If this is just a moment
Then don’t let it be the same
Say it one more time
My love
[whispered vocals] Say my name
Say my name
[Chorus]
