Asleep with the Light On by Elephant Revival Lyrics

As the daytime is approaching
Awake as I lay dreaming
With my clothes off
Asleep with the light on
Asleep with the light on
All my thoughts lay in a bundle
Next to a story left undone
Banjo untuned, African drum
Asleep with the light on
Asleep with the light on
Is that a cricket in the kitchen?
Is that a tune left unwritten?
Was that you of whom I'm dreaming
Riding horses through the valleys of Virginia?
[Bed back in the briar]
Soaked by the rain
Asleep with the light on
Asleep with the light on
You are gone now, my dear departed
Broken shapes of broken hearted
As I'm dreaming in the morning
Distant fields of distant yearning
Take me back to the river
Back to the valley
Or the highest mountain
Asleep with the light on
Asleep with the light on
