0:23All the words had all been spoken
0:28And somehow the feeling still wasn't right
0:36And still we continued through the night
0:47Tracing our steps from the beginning
0:51Until they vanished into the air
0:58Trying to understand how our lives had led us there
1:10Looking hard into your eyes
1:14There was nobody I'd ever known
1:19Such an empty surprise
1:25To feel so alone
1:32Now for me some words come easy
1:37But I know that they don't mean that much
1:46Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
1:56You never knew what I loved in you
2:01I don't know what you loved in me
2:08Maybe the picture of somebody hoping I might be
2:20Awake again I can't pretend
2:26And I know I'm alone and close to the end
2:35Of the feeling we've known
2:43How long have I been sleeping
2:49How long have I been drifting alone through the night
2:55How long have I been dreaming I could make it right
3:02If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might
3:08To be the one you need
4:00Awake again I can't pretend
4:06And I know I'm alone and close to the end
4:15Of the feeling we've known
4:24How long have I been sleeping
4:29How long have I been drifting alone through the night
4:35How long have I been running for that morning flight
4:42Throught the whispered promises and the changing light
4:48Of the bed where we both lie
4:53Late For The Sky
All the words had all been spoken And somehow the feeling still wasn't right And still we continued through the night Tracing our steps from the beginning Until they vanished into the air Trying to understand how our lives had led us there Looking hard into your eyes There was nobody I'd ever known Such an empty surprise To feel so alone Now for me some words come easy But I know that they don't mean that much Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch You never knew what I loved in you I don't know what you loved in me Maybe the picture of somebody hoping I might be Awake again I can't pretend And I know I'm alone and close to the end Of the feeling we've known How long have I been sleeping How long have I been drifting alone through the night How long have I been dreaming I could make it right If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might To be the one you need Awake again I can't pretend And I know I'm alone and close to the end Of the feeling we've known How long have I been sleeping How long have I been drifting alone through the night How long have I been running for that morning flight Throught the whispered promises and the changing light Of the bed where we both lie Late For The Sky
