Sleepless Within

from Sleepless Within by James Farmer

lyrics

Snow on the ground,
Hope in the air.
My feet lead my mind,
They're taking me there
To you.

Sleepless Within
The palm of the night
I practice the words
That wander my mind
For you

Rivers of people
Abandoning streets
Arms around others
That they've come to meet,
Like you.

But you're in the yard,
Soaked in the light
Offer your hands
And into the night,
With you.

We are ageless now,
No fear, no light, no sound.
We are ageless now,
Neither lost, nor found.

I was so worried
That my time had passed.
The years that preceded
Were the best that I had in me
In me.

But weightless am I,
Away from the crowd.
No year moves too fast,
No colour too loud,
To see.

But fortune had faded,
As soon as it starts.
Your balance eludes you,
The night falls apart
To me.

I wake in the morning,
Soaked in the light.
Snow on the carpet,
Remnants of a night
Unseen.
