I lay awake every night,
dreading going to sleep...
It's days like these that I fade away.
It's days like these that I hate to stay...
Cry me every tear, and will fill up a bath, take...
Can you feel it running through your heart...
Trees are weeping in despair,
the fox's howling it's not fair...
I want to sleep
a slumber in peace...
See her looks of defeat,
when his eyes she can't meet...
If you say a lie to me,
I may just have smile and nod...
She wanted her mother,
to hold her when she cried...
He left so quickly today,
Mother didn't get to say goodbye...
"She's crying again mama"
said the little girls voice...
She's just sitting on her bed,
in the middle of the night...
A whisper of wind I long to breathe,
just to catch it within my arms...
