lyrics

I often wonder why you wake so slow
Dreaming dense dreams through the undertow...
Are they too real in the deepest narrows?
Or in your mind's garden with the regal sparrows.

Your in no mood for this troubled hue.
Needing new colours for your shade of blue.
I felt the night sky for me and for you.
But i had no choice to take your cue.

Now i wile away days in remorseful sleep.
When you never once felt remorse for me.
So much hindsite filled with regret...
Your face and your voice i'll not soon forget.

The guy you knew faded from view
In your eyes but he longs for you.
Every long day every miscue
The moments we had i've bid adieu.

How do you say i want you to stay
To someone who's running away?
Since she's been gone i've felt astray
Entire being in dissaray.

Truths we'd sworn we're quickly torn.
The softness in your heart is filled with scorn.
Broken mind desperately worn.
Tried to hide, tried not to mourn.
