Sleepless Nights - Mia Doi Todd

David, is it true that fear is lavender?

How do you walk the waves so free?

Fear is an ocean of unknown proportion

It strikes me down some sleepless nights

Some sleepless nights

Some sleepless nights

Some sleepless nights

Out on the patio, I told you how long ago

I had abandoned my will

Under the circumstance, I really had no chance

The loss, the let down, the lameness haunt me still

How far we go

Along the road

Away from ourselves?

How far we go

Along the road

Away from ourselves?

We were not getting along, retreat already begun

Though we made it through the night

Time came to climb the wall

I was hoping, I would fall back onto your side

When one is hurt

And one is meek

And one is lost

Love is like that lilac wine

It makes you drunk, it makes you cry

Tears and laughter, ecstasy

Our bodies move in harmony, ohh, ohh

We walked into town to find the man we found

His wife served us rice and beans and beer

We got just what we wanted

Headed down to the ocean’s mouth to make our peace again

How far we go

Along the road

To find ourselves?

How far we go

Along the road

To find ourselves?

Ohh, ohh
