You Were Sleeping - Andrew James

Shadows long upon my face Shadows long upon my face She's gone On the last train Never thought that she would go Never thought that she would go Now I'm all on my own Oh, I've been hit The love affair is over And I know that I'm alone Need a day, I need a night Need a day I need a night I know I'm gonna see the light Lover's darkness on my head Lover's darkness on my head And it's all a shade of red Oh, I've been hit Tthe love affair is over And I know that I' m alone If you think that I'm afraid Never knew what I am made Remember all the things in you And everything you put me through Here's a little lullaby Wash your tears and don't you cry Cause you are inside of me Leave my heart and let me be In a lonely, crowded life To a place beyond the sky Where our love won't fade away Waiting to be born again Waiting to be next to me Weight of sorrow Weight of gold Way your words can now unfold Way you couldn't let me stay Live my life and walk away I'll be there and so will you When the known is in it's power When the young is in it's flower You reached out to fill a need Walked away in word and deed Go and haunt your dreams no more In a silence in a room In a quiet in a mood I'll remember every day That your promise never gave Never to return again Those in love do what they need Light a candle, plant a seed I'll return when things have changed Live and die and born again Through the night and through the way Painted pictures in your mind Can you leave it all behind Loss and love and live again Shake my hand and call me friend Hate will be the death of your Stranger sorrow let me go Down a dark and lonely road Ways of light to show my way Ways of love to heal my pain All of this I ask in you.

I still can't believe That you noticed me An ocean away The heavens would say It was meant to be I'll never forget The first time I saw you then Primrose at three You had all of me Without saying a word I don't recognize myself I'm dancing down streets Smiling to strangers Idiotic things I trace it all back 3:30 am That night something turned in my heart While you were sleeping, I fell in love I can't quite believe You think I'm beautiful Must be a trick A "tag and you're it" Kind of foolery Then you take my hand Kiss me on the cheek A light pink bouquet A promise you'll stay And I start to believe I don't recognize myself I'm writing a love song Who've I become? There must be something wrong I trace it all back 3:30 am That night something turned in my heart While you were sleeping, I fell in love
