Ernie Lyrics - Kate Miller-heidke

[Verse 1] 

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, can't believe my luck 

[Pre-Chorus 1] 

You're a chubby little pudge ball 

Half animal, half cupid 

You know next to nothing 

Still you make me feel so stupid

[Chorus 1] 

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 

[Verse 2] 

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 

(We will never be the same now) 

[Pre-Chorus 2] 

But I don't trust my own memory 

Who you were last week is blurry already 

And I'm so happy watching you dance today 

But by tomorrow, you'll be changed again

[Chorus 2] 

And I'm not 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 

[Bridge] 

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
