The Light Before We Land Lyrics - Singles - The Delgados

In cases such as these, I'd like a hand 

Don't wake me up without a master plan 

With sight and sound becoming fragile 

Don't you understand? 

When things that once were beautiful 

Are bland 

And when I feel like I can feel once again 

Let me stay awhile 

Soak it in awhile 

If we can hold on, we can fix what is wrong 

Buy a little time for this head of mine 

Heaven for us 

In truth there is no better place to be 

Than falling out of darkness still to see 

Without a premonition 

Could you tell me where we stand? 

I'd hate to lose this light 

Before we land 

And when I feel like I can feel once again 

Let me stay awhile 

Soak it in awhile 

If we can hold on, we can fix what is wrong 

Buy a little time for this head of mine 

Heaven for us 

Before we let euphoria 

Convince us we are free 

Remind us how we used to feel 

Before when life was real, ahh, ahh 

And when I feel like I can feel once again 

Let me stay awhile 

Soak it in awhile 

If we can hold on, we can fix what is wrong 

Buy a little time for this head of mine 

Heaven for us
