    You sleep til morning
    You draw the dreamland right into the day
    And I’m not forgetting
    I’ve watched my waking thoughts from where I lay

    Where I lay, the bed is silent
    Til prayers that I said to the dark
    They wake the day
    From strangest slumbers
    The dreams I’ve numbered on my heart

    Stay where you are now
    I’ll meet you every long and lasting day
    Tell me tales of a traveler
    I’ll take it all right here, from where I lay

  2. irene, goodnight

    Irene, goodnight
    Irene, goodnight
    Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
    I’ll see you in my dreams

    Last Saturday I got married
    Me and my love settled down
    Now me and my love are parted
    I’ll take another stroll downtown

    Sometimes I live in the country
    Sometimes I live in the town
    Sometimes I take a great notion
    To jump in the water and drown

    Irene, goodnight
    Irene, goodnight
    Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
    I’ll see you in my dreams

    Lead me on to midnight
    Because I can see by your light
    And every turn before me
    An illuminated story

    For all the kindness I tried
    When darkness took the roadside
    It brought me back to ponder
    The reason for my wandering

    See there
    We met where
    The sojourners found
    A small bit of permanent ground

    Lay me down it’s alright
    Point yourself to daylight
    The blinding spark breaks over
    The still and waiting water

    See there
    We met where
    The sojourners found
    A small bit of permanent ground

    I drove your car
    Through this town, half awake
    Traced all the shapes that we make

    Again I wait for you
    Confirming in the darkness what I already knew
    And you’re just looking for
    Some follow-through
    Baby, I’ll look at you

    Let’s eat now
    I made you some food from the cow
    I wondered as I cooked it
    And thought about now
    Baby, we never knew how

    I almost caught the lightning
    Out the corner of my eye
    I stared at the horizon
    The ships and sailors passing by

    I hold this in my pocket
    Like a stolen souvenir
    The scent of an apartment
    The breath I held when you were here
