Crying in Your Sleep

As the rain falls down upon our room
you've been tossing in our bed
I was hoping you might reach for me
But I've come to find instead

There's a wall between I cannot scale
If I try I know I'll only fail
Though I feel your breath upon my cheek
I know you're a world away

You've been crying in your sleep again
And I heard another name
Turned the light off like a bride and groom
Now I hardly feel the same

I'll never know the light that came and went
I'll never know the love you might have spent

All good fortune ours to reap
But it drove me down so deep
When you were crying in your sleep

You wake up and slide away from me
I'm left staring at the wall
Is it only my imagining
Or is it something I once saw

Conjured up a careless memory
Did it mean more than it seemed to me?
Could his words unspoken years ago
keep me from your heart today?

You've been crying in your sleep again
And I heard another name
Turned the light off like a bride and groom
Now I hardly feel the same

I'll never know the light that came and went
I'll never know the love you might have spent
All good fortune ours to reap
But it drove me down so deep
When you were crying in your sleep

Kiss me on the lips hello and on the cheek goodbye
I'll feel that hollowness again
Was our love just a lie?

Your trail of tears is dragging me back
to a place where I can see no promise left to keep
Only crying in your sleep

I'll never know the light that came and went
I'll never know the love you might have spent
All good fortune ours to reap
But it drove me down so deep
When you were crying in your sleep
