Cannot Sleep

I lie awake each night
I cannot sleep
& If I close my eyes
I cannot dream
All those things
I once thought I'd be
Have now sailed off
To distant seas
But, in their stead
Became something more
Realized, what I was meant
To be here for

The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love
& Be loved in return
Within this fire
We'll make it burn
Like the Sun
You're a Star
When it's your turn

I lie awake
& Watch you sleep
I long to join you
Inside your dreams

All want a response
But, take no responsibility
For creating it
Like a flower comes from seed
From this day
To infinity
Forty-eight reasons
To be free

Where The Other Mind
Speaks freely
Beyond a plain where
Syntax can't keep me

Oh, just once
I'd like to see
Us all explore
The possibility
To go where no man
Has gone before
& Safely land on
That distant shore

Where never again
Walk in my sleep
I pray no more for
My soul to keep

& If I should die
Before I wake
I'll pray no more
For my soul to take
Forever loving you
For heaven's sake
I'll be with you
Won't let you break

Cause' even if I
We're dead & gone
My love for you will
Always live on
(Humming)

Cause' even if I
We're dead & gone
My love for you will
Always live on
(Humming)

I lie awake
& Watch you sleep
I long to join you
Inside your dreams

I lie awake
& Watch you sleep
I long to join you
Inside your dreams

I lie awake each night
I Cannot Sleep
