Belle & Sebastian - Asleep on a Sunbeam Lyrics

When the half light makes for a clearer view
Sleep a little more if you want to
But restlessness has seized me now, it's true
I could watch the dreams flicker in your eyes
Lyin' here asleep on a sunbeam
I wonder if you realize you fascinate me so

Think about a new destination
If you think you need inspiration
Roll out the map and mark it with a pin
I will follow every direction
Just lace up your shoes while I'm fetchin' a sleepin' bag, a tent
Another summer's passing by

All I need is somewhere I can feel the grass beneath my feet
A walk on sand, a fire, I can warm my hands
My joy will be complete

I thought about a new destination
I'm never short of new inspiration
Roll out the map and mark it with the gin
Made my plans to conquer the country
I'm waiting for you to get out of your situation
With your job and with your life

All I need is somewhere I can feel the grass beneath my feet
A walk on sand, a fire, I can warm my hands
My joy will be complete

Another summer's passin' by
All I need is somewhere I can feel the grass beneath my feet
A walk on sand, a fire, I can warm my hands
My joy will be complete
