Bastille
Eight Hours
[Verse 1]
I got a version of you in my head
I don't wanna ruin it, I don't wanna ruin it
I got a version of you in my bed
I don't wanna ruin this, there ain't no undoing this

[Pre-Chorus]
Sleeping? Why would we go dreaming?
Why would we go anywhere?
Let's fight the daylight, I can't get my head right
Why would we go anywhere?

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm not gonna shut my eyes 'cause sleeping means I'm missing everything
And that's eight hours without you
No, I'm not gonna sleep tonight 'cause why'd I wanna dream of anything?
And that's eight hours without you

[Post-Chorus]
And I don't need eight more hours without you (Eight more hours without you)
No, I don't need eight more hours without you (Eight more hours without you)

[Verse 2]
Tossing and turning now we're through the sheets
Hit me like a sugar rush, so no dreams can come for us
Tumbling into way more littlе deaths
Keeping it corporeal, hold me tight to keep this rеal
[Pre-Chorus]
Sleeping? Why would we go dreaming?
Why would we go anywhere? Oh
Let's fight the daylight, I can't get my head right
Why would we go anywhere? Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
I'm not gonna shut my eyes 'cause sleeping means I'm missing everything
And that's eight hours without you
No, I'm not gonna sleep tonight 'cause why do I wanna dream of anything?
That's eight hours without you

[Post-Chorus]
And I don't need eight more hours without you (Eight more hours without you)
No, I don't need eight more hours without you (Eight more hours without you)

[Outro]
These nights, never wanna let go, these nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come, knows what dreams may come?
These nights, never wanna let go, these nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come, knows what dreams may come? (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
These nights, never wanna let go (Oh), these nights, why'd I wanna leave? (These nights)
Who knows what dreams may come, knows what dreams may come? (Na, na, na, na, na)
These nights, never wanna let go, these nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come, knows what dreams may come? (I don't need no)
These nights, never wanna let go (Eight more hours without you), these nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come, knows what dreams may come? (I don't need no)
These nights, never wanna let go (Eight more hours without you), these nights, why'd I wanna leave?
Who knows what dreams may come, knows what dreams may come? (I don't need no)
