Sleep's Dark and Silent Gate - Jackson Browne

Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder

Where my life will lead me

Waiting to pass under sleepЂ™s dark and silent gate

I found my love too late

Running around day after day

Looking for the time to play

While my old friends slipped away

Never should have had to try so hard

To make a love work out, I guess

I donЂ™t know what love has got to do with happiness

But the times when we were happy

Were the times we never tried

Sitting down by the highway

Looking down the road

Waiting for a ride

I donЂ™t know where IЂ™ve been

Wishing I could fly away

DonЂ™t know where IЂ™m going

Wishing I could hide

Oh God this is some shape IЂ™m in

When the only thing that makes me cry

Is the kindness in my babyЂ™s eye

Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder

Where the years have gone

They have all passed under

SleepЂ™s dark and silent gate
