Lyrics Sleep When We're Dead - Morgan Wallen

The night is gettin' late, the crowd's headed home
It's just you and me, girl, on the lake shore
I know I just met you, but I can't let you go
Forget about your friends, baby, I'll drive you home (yeah)

I'll set you on the tailgate, we'll take it nice and slow
I know it ain't your style, but I won't tell a soul, no

I know you gotta wake up for that nine-to-five
But what's the point of livin', girl
If you don't feel alive?

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
Pour another drink, talk that song
'Bout small town lovers, hot summer nights
Midnight dancin' in the headlights
Some day we might regret leavin' that love out by the lake
If you're gettin' tired, honey, we'll put that thought to bed
But we can sleep when we're dead

Put your pretty arms around me
Now get in nice and close
Whisper in my ear what you'd like to know
And you can tell me 'bout your family
Or tell me 'bout your day
Or our lips can do the talking
Let's listen, baby, what do you say?

I know it's kinda crazy for a Tuesday night
But sometimes, a good thing don't need time

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
Pour another drink, talk that song
'Bout small town lovers, hot summer nights
Midnight dancin' in the headlights
Some day we might regret leavin' that love out by the lake
If you're gettin' tired, honey, we'll put that thought to bed

With a smile, she pulled me to water
Them southern girls, man, they just don't get any hotter
I said, "No girl, got on my good jeans"
She looked at me, "Boy, like what do you mean?"

We can sleep when we're dead, the night is still young
Jump on in, let's have a little fun
Small town lovers, hot summer nights
Out here swimmin' in the moonlight

Some day we might regret leavin' this love out by the lake
But no matter what you do, don't forget what we said
Oh, we can sleep when we're dead
We can sleep when we're dead, oh yeah

We can sleep when we're dead
