Story Behind The Song
Yes, I actually did this once....
Song Description
Love turns to obsession. After a few hundred miles you're back at their door. Wanting them to jump in your arms, wanting to tell them everything in your soul. But you know it's not right. You know you're not supposed to be here. And so, with a broken heart, you leave....

Lyrics
as you sleep
verse 1
at 4am on empty street there ain?t a soul around
i?m hollow through my heart i?m hollow in the ground
at 4am the lonely highway black it lays before
i don?t what i?ll say when i get there to your door
chorus 1
as you sleep i?m coming i?m coming after you there?s nothing you can do
verse 2
a hundred miles it lays behind and hundred miles ahead
i can?t fight off the darkness the haunting in my head
a snapshot a picture of what we?re supposed to be
a memory that never was and i can?t let it be
chorus 2
as you sleep i?m coming i?m coming after you there?s nothing left to do
verse 3
i see you through a window asleep and dreaming there and all i want?s to have to be lying with you there
the sun she?s now arising wishing sweet dreams for the night i get back in the car and leave you the night
chorus 3
as you sleep i?m coming i?m coming after you as you sleep i?m running i?d run anywhere for you
maybe there?s a time and maybe i?ll be fine maybe but now i drive away from you
