Late for the Sky (Remastered)

All the words had all been spoken

And somehow the feeling still wasn't right

And still we continued on through the nightTracing our steps from the beginning

Until they vanished into the air

Trying to understand how our lives had led us thereLooking hard into your eyes

There was nobody I'd ever known

Such an empty surprise to feel so aloneNow for me some words come easy

But I know that they don't mean that much

Compared with the things that are said when lovers touchYou never knew what I loved in you

I don't know what you loved in me

Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might beAwake again I can't pretend

And I know I'm alone

And close to the end of the feeling we've knownHow long've I been sleeping?

And how long've I been drifting alone through the night?

How long've I been dreaming I could make it right?

If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might

To be the one you needAwake again I can't pretend

And I know I'm alone

And close to the end of the feeling we've knownHow long've I been sleeping?

How long've I been drifting alone through the night?

How long've I been running for that morning flight?

Through the whispered promises and the changing light

Of the bed where we both lie late for the sky
