through a long and sleepless night

Singer: scott walker

through a long and sleepless night

i whisper your name

through a long and sleepless night

of who is to blame

can't help but wonder

if you're lonely too

as i lie here and toss about

so at a loss without you

how i wish

my heart would leave

my memories alone

why must i re-dream

re-live

the joys we have known

i pray that someday

our love will see the light

till then

in tick-tock silence

i'll beg my heart to weep less

all through an oh so long and sleepless night

i pray that someday

our love will see the light

till then

in tick-tock silence

i'll beg my heart to weep less

all through an oh so long and sleepless night
