Keeping Me Awake by Tarkio Lyrics

Summer, it came
Like a light across the highlands
And we laid it down
You wore a dress
Made of light from the islands
And we sent postcards home

In dying light
This was not to be forgotten
‘cause we are the chosen few
Into the sea with the touch of softest cotton
Beneath this angel moon
Its been keeping me awake

Leaving this behind was my first mistake
And I'm not so strong
To be satisfied by all the things I've done
And the things it threw away

You wrote your name
As we lay among the heather
What you left behind
Following paths that would lead us both together
Let us lose our minds
Its been keeping me awake
Leaving this behind was my first mistake
And I'm not so strong
To be satisfied by all the things I've done
By the things it threw away

Summer, it fell
And it coursed across the highlands
And so quickly gone
Your faded dress for years now tied away and silent
And the night's late lullaby
Has been keeping me awake

Leaving this behind was my first mistake
And I'm not so strong
To be satisfied by all the things I've done
By all the things it threw away
By all the things it threw away
By all the things it threw away
By all the things it threw away
