The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

All the words had all been spoken

And somehow the feeling still wasnt right

And still we continued through the night

Tracing our steps from the beginning

Until they vanished into the end

Trying to understand how our lives had led us there

Looking hard into your eyes

There was nobody I'd ever known

Such an empty surprise

To feel so alone

Now for me some words come easy

But I know that they dont mean that much

Unheard with the things that we said in other's touch

You never knew what I loved in you

I don't know what you loved in me

Maybe the picture of somebody hoping I might be

Awake again I can't pretend

And I know I'm alone and close to the end

Of the feeling we've known

How long have I been sleeping

How long have I been drifting along throught the night

How long have I been dreaming I could make it right

If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might

To be the the one you need

How long have I been sleeping

How long have I been drifting along throught the night

How long have I been longing for that morning fight

Throught thte whispered promises and the changing light

In the bed where we both lie

Late for the sky
