lyrics

Bittersweet
Make-believe
Planning the escape

Reveries
Calling me when
I’m about to break

The vision isn’t giving
As much as it will take

As they hide
Satellites
Secretly alarm

I think of this
While I wish that
I was on a farm

With my double in my meetings
Where he’s met with open arms
Every weekday turning on the charm

‘Cause I want to fall asleep
Beneath the midday sun
To be there counting sheep
Beneath the midday sun

Back on the ground
Safe and sound
In another dimension
So still, paying no attention

There’s a place
Where we came
Where we could relate

On any day
It’s far away
And so I feel the same

And I don’t need an address,
Directions or a name

It’s always hidden on another plane
I’ll find it anyway
When the vision appears
And it seems that it’s clear
Frontiers on a bright afternoon

It’ll hurt to pretend
That none of this ends
As the daylight descends too soon
I don’t need the moon

‘Cause I want to fall asleep
Beneath the midday sun
To be there counting sheep
Beneath the midday sun

I want to fall asleep
Beneath the midday sun
It’s silent and it’s sweet
Beneath the midday sun

I want to fall asleep
Beneath the midday sun
To listen to the leaves
Beneath the midday sun

I want to fall asleep
Beneath the midday sun
A blanket in the breeze
Beneath the midday sun

I want to fall asleep
Beneath the midday sun
And dream a different dream
Beneath the midday sun

I want to fall asleep
Beneath the midday sun
To feel that I’m complete
Beneath the midday sun

I want to fall asleep
Beneath the midday sun
And everything redeemed
Beneath the midday sun
