Ernie
Ernie sleeps and I'm awake
Does he see me, does he see me
Among the shifting shapes?
The day is tired, and so am I
Still I can't believe my luck
I hope I don't make too many mistakes
He fell off, fell off the chair
The second I looked away
Just about anything makes me cry
Still I can't believe my luck
You're a chubby little pudge ball
Half animal, half Cupid
You know next to nothing
Still you make me feel so stupid
And I can't believe my luck
I am yours and you are mine
Oh I've really come unstuck this time
I can't believe my luck
He landed like an alien
From a distant, dark and liquid planet
Turned this whole house upside down
We will never be the same now
But I don't trust my own memory
Who you were last week - it's blurry already
And I'm so happy watching you dance today
But by tomorrow you'll be changed again
And I'm no good at letting go
Won't you stay the way you are?
It's the hardest thing I've ever known
And I can't believe my luck
Is he only sleeping?
Yes he is still breathing
Is he only sleeping?
Yes he is still breathing
Is he only sleeping?
Yes he is still breathing
Is he only? Is he only? Yes he is still
Ernie sleeps and I'm awake
Does he see me, does he see me
Among the shifting shapes?
The day is tired, and so am I
Still I can't believe my luck
I hope I don't make too many mistakes
He fell off, fell off the chair
The second I looked away
Just about anything makes me cry
Still I can't believe my luck
You're a chubby little pudge ball
Half animal, half Cupid
You know next to nothing
Still you make me feel so stupid
And I can't believe my luck
I am yours and you are mine
Oh I've really come unstuck this time
I can't believe my luck
He landed like an alien
From a distant, dark and liquid planet
Turned this whole house upside down
We will never be the same now
But I don't trust my own memory
Who you were last week - it's blurry already
And I'm so happy watching you dance today
But by tomorrow you'll be changed again
And I'm no good at letting go
Won't you stay the way you are?
It's the hardest thing I've ever known
And I can't believe my luck
Is he only sleeping?
Yes he is still breathing
Is he only sleeping?
Yes he is still breathing
Is he only sleeping?
Yes he is still breathing
Is he only? Is he only? Yes he is still
Ernie sleeps and I'm awake
