Another Night I lie awake Another Night so close to heavons gate Another story from lips grown blue of heartbreak,death and the happy few I see you so close I kiss your lips, my red rose I hear the words you spoke then My hearts still hears words of a women Another Night i lie awake Another night the pain I take longing to be with my love when morning rises high above You never left my dreams of blue with me, the years, You've travelled through From Slum to Slum we've gone Into the sky and the new Morn Another Night i lie awake Another Night no tears are faked Loving Bride, tender heart I feel the heat of my tears start Yet I walk without a break Your memory becoming the songs I make My pillow soaked with blood and tears I will carry with me down the years Another Night i lie awake Another night and step i make From this world to another place where you sing and with love once again we chase I see you Now as the night grows blue Through satin sheets Through years untrue Another night i lie awake Another night in the bottles wake My life slips gently out of time It is over this life of mine Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen, and down the mountain side The summer's gone, and all the roses falling 'Tis |

Another Night i lie awake Another Night no tears are faked Loving Bride, tender heart I feel the heat of my tears start Yet I walk without a break Your memory becoming the songs I make My pillow soaked with blood and tears I will carry with me down the years Another Night i lie awake Another night and step i make From this world to another place where you sing and with love once again we chase I see you Now as the night grows blue Through satin sheets Through years untrue Another night i lie awake Another night in the bottles wake My life slips gently out of time It is over this life of mine ========================== walter.. this poem is so heartbreakingly sad i dont really have the words to respond. one of the gifts of a truly well written poem is when it evokes hearfelt emotions from the reader ... this one does that and more take care gentle poet in the dark jm There are places inside our souls - that have never been touched. There are places inside our hearts - that need to be loved this much. ~jm~ |
