Midnight

by livefreebright   May 17, 2006


Fire engines sound in the distance
Helicopters soar over head
A cool breeze blows my curtains
As I lie awake in my bed

Another sleepless night
Where I'm in the mood to right
But nothing is coming out right

Trying to convey my feelings
That are tangled in my mind
Sometimes I wish I could stop
Or at least hit rewind

When the house is quiet
And I have time to think
A million thoughts rush through my head
And I can't sleep a wink

How can I explain it
Though you may know what I mean
How do I explain it all
And everything in between

If he was here beside me
Then I'd be sleeping sound
Though I can't concentrate
When he's not around

I wouldn't have to think about him
ThoughI do all the time
And thats my reason for being here
Sleeplessly writting this rhyme

And I check the time
It's getting late
The street grows quiet
I can not seem to wait

I'll dream of you tonight
And see you in the day
But for now I will try to sleep
I think I've said what I had to say.
