Time To Rest Your Weary Head - Jacob Collier

Lyrics by：Jacob Collier

Composed by：Jacob Collier

The time has come for me to tell you

All the things I really feel about you

'Cause lately time's been moving on

And every day we seem to grow a little older too

The more I think of you the less I seem

To know the way I feel about you

And all I think is all I know

And all I know is all I want to think about is you

I used to think I knew it all

And that the love you gave was mine for keeping

I guess I cared too much for you back then

To see the simple magic of it all

I long to see the things we saw

When we were young and could not see so clearly

When all the world was just a blur of coloured lines

That I'd trace most sincerely back to you

And you'd say

"Time to rest your weary head

Take your wings and go to bed

I know you want to know it all my darling"

And I'd say

"Set me down and rock me

Rock me to sleep"

I see the sparkle in your eyes

You say I'm beautiful and I believe you

And I will never feel more beautiful

Than when I'm wide awake beside you

I'll wander far and wide and wonder

How it feels to fall in love with someone

Without the need to show her everything I've learnt

About the world since you've been gone

And you'd say

"Time to rest your weary head

Take your wings and go to bed

I know you want to show it all my darling"

And I'd say

"Set me down and rock me

Rock me to sleep"

There was a time it seemed the time itself

Was free and would go on forever

Wanted to cling to it but now I see

Its fading is its greatest treasure ooh

And you would say

"Time to rest my weary head

Take my wings and go to bed

I know you want to feel it all my darling"

And I'd say

"Sit me down and rock me oh

Sit me down and rock me oh darling

Sit me down and rock me

Rock me to sleep"
