Did I sleep? Do I dream of cold, silent water So deep and dark And the wires are singing our song? Our song
As we lay back and stared into cloudless skies And the stars up there The wires are singing our song The wires are singing our song
Your face, now so plain, once was so lovely A beautiful refrain, dust with stars But your smile now in disguise became a flat line And to never love again like you did before Was all
Why go on with it, why go on with it? Why, to let it flow, like water on snow?
I know what you want, what you are thinking To drift beyond the pain and out of reach To sit, be safe and warm inside your sorrow And listen to the slow, slow morse tapping of the rain But it says:
Why go on with it? Why go on with it? Why to let it flow like water on snow?
