All march ahead as I stay behind
with a helpless heart and a useless mind
If by a sleight of hand I could make it right
I lie awake in the midst of night


Thoughts wave, questions rise
some i throw, some I hide
a lot to talk and a way to confide
but bigger questions still reside
as I lie awake in the midst of night


As I slowly shut my eyes
I see the girl with a kid by side
Why is she in my dream?
Why is a kid with her?
Wondering with my eyes wide
I lie awake in the midst of night
