Late For The Sky Lyrics

作詞　Jackson Browne
作曲　Jackson Browne

All the words had all been spoken,
Somehow the feeling still wasn't right
And still we continued on through the night.
Tracing out steps from the beginning.
Until they vanished into the air
Trying to understand how our lives had led us there.
Looking was nobody I'd ever known
Such an empty surprise
To feel so alone.

Now, for me, some wards come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when loves touch.
You never knew what I loved in you
I don't know what you loved in me.
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be.
Awake again, I can't pretend
That 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 driffing along through 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 one you neee?
Awake again, I can't pretend
That 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 driffing along through the night?
How long have I been running for that morning flight
Through the whispered promises, and the changing light
Of the bed where we both lie,
Late for the sky
