Sleep When We're Dead

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

The night is gettin' late, the crowd's headed home

It's just you and me girl on the lake shore

I know I just met you but I can't let you go

Forget about your friends, baby, I'll drive you home (yeah)

I'll set you on the tailgate, we'll take it nice and slow

I know it ain't your stop, but I won't tell a soul, no

I know you gotta wake up for that nine to five

But what's the point of livin', girl

If you don't feel alive?

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young

Pour another drink, talk that song

'Bout small town lovers, hot summer nights

Midnight dancin' in the headlights

Some day we might regret leavin' that love out by the lake

If you're gettin' tired honey, we'll put that thought to bed

But we can sleep when we're dead

Put your pretty arms around me, now get in nice and close

Whisper in my ear what you'd like to know

Now you can tell me 'bout your family, or tell me 'bout your day

Or our lips can do the talking, let's listen baby, what do you say?

I know it's kinda crazy for a Tuesday night

But sometimes a good thing don't need time

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young

Pour another drink, talk that song

'Bout small town lovers, hot summer nights

Midnight dancin' in the headlights

Some day we might regret leavin' that love out by the lake

If you're gettin' tired honey, we'll put that thought to bed

With a smile she pulled me to water

Them southern girls, man, they just don't get any hotter

I said: No girl, got on my good jeans

She looked at me boy like: What do you mean?

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young

Jump on in, let's have a little fun

Small town lovers, hot summer nights

Out here swimmin' in the moonlight

Some day we might regret leavin' this love out by the lake

But no matter what you do, don't forget what we said

We can sleep when we're dead

We can sleep when we're dead, aww yeah

We can sleep when we're dead
