Willy Mason - I Can't Sleep lyrics

rate me

i can't sleep

when you're gone

nighttime speaks

and i'm too proud to break the firing line

i'm waiting for the gods to take my eyes

take them out beyond the border line

show me the road through eagles eyes

i know that way we haven't far to ride

books and hooks and paper cups

oh help me i can't sleep

its just a game but oh that game

something strong

crawling round my mind does not belong

pillows soft

tell myself again till i get lost

i'm looking for the space between the space

that gathers dust in every eager age

skate across the top of this great maze

skate as though i know i can't be saved

strangers from the future

now are speaking right though me

they lead the way to my escape

ohhhhh ahhhhhh
