When I Fall Asleep (I Feel You With Me) Lyrics

[Verse 1: OwdaBounds]
Yeah I know you hate sleepin alone
Please believe that I just wanna be at home
So we can cuddle and I'd whisper in your ear that I love you
I love you, I love you yeah
I dream about you even when I am awake
Every time I close my eyes I see our first date
Baby know I'm thinkin bout you always
And I honor you like students that be making all A's
Every night before bed I begin to pray above
Cause all relationships are made off of faith and love
And god sent me an angel but while I'm writing I can't be with her
So I lay in bed hoping heavens saving us
Put on a smile and try ya best to look beyond this
I'll be home before you even know it oh I promise
You sleepin alone tonight ooh I hate that shit
But you gone wake up in my arms ooh I love that shit

[Hook]
When I fall asleep I feel you with me
When I fall asleep I feel you with me
When I fall asleep I feel you with me
Until I fall asleep and you are with me


You blowing up my phone, I'm thinking something's wrong
But you just wanna know when I'm coming home
Never soon enough, thats what I always say
Baby I'm on the beat, wishing that I was on the way
Back to your room to laugh and glance at the moon
But instead I'm in the lab, been rapping all afternoon
We working just tryna get it right, put in that overtime
Girl I won't be in tonight but you know you on my mind
I know sometimes this shit don't really seem so great
But then I fall asleep and I know we gon be okay
Cuz everytime I shut my eyes, I see yo face
Then for a moment in my mind, I relocate
To a place where that bed was meant for two
But tonight you're all alone and the sky's electric blue
In due time, I'll show you a world you never knew
Where there's no work left to do and I can wake up next to you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

“On the surface this is a nice little ballad to our significant others about not being able to spend time with them due to chasing the dream but if you dig a little deeper, this is our version of "I Used To Love H.E.R.” except with the focus on the chase rather than the breakup. So the “girl” here represents the dream of fame and success and “spending time with them” represents the accomplishment of our dreams. The direct story is pretty simple so we’re just going to explain the metaphor.“ – Native Strangers
