Back to Sleep Lyrics

I've been woken by a frenzy of activity

Unusual all about this time

I can hardly see the change of light and shade

And finally I hear a slammin' door

As I grope for you I only feel an empty sheet

From outside I hear diverting footsteps on the street

But inside I feel an awful silence seems to spread

And plan to stay for long

I go back to sleep

Hoping when I wake up late

Things will fall into its place

Which makes clear that you're gone

Which means our song's been sung

And you will never be a part of me no more

I feel a lot like a maiden all forlorn
