Sleep's Dark and Silent Gate |
| Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder |
| Where my life will lead me |
| Waiting to pass under sleepЂ™s dark and silent gate |
| I found my love too late |
| Running around day after day |
| Looking for the time to play |
| While my old friends slipped away |
| Never should have had to try so hard |
| To make a love work out, I guess |
| I donЂ™t know what love has got to do with happiness |
| But the times when we were happy |
| Were the times we never tried |
| Sitting down by the highway |
| Looking down the road |
| Waiting for a ride |
| I donЂ™t know where IЂ™ve been |
| Wishing I could fly away |
| DonЂ™t know where IЂ™m going |
| Wishing I could hide |
| Oh God this is some shape IЂ™m in |
| When the only thing that makes me cry |
| Is the kindness in my babyЂ™s eye |
| Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder |
| Where the years have gone |
| They have all passed under |
| SleepЂ™s dark and silent gate |
