Sleeping
The Swell Season

		
Are you sleeping?
		
Still dreaming?
					
Still drifting off alone...
					
I'm not leaving with this feeling
					
So you'd better best be told

.	.	.	.		
And how in the world did you come
.	.	.			
To be such a lazy love? 

				
It's so simple, and fitting
					
The path that you are on
		
We're not talking, there's no 
	
secrets
			
There's just a note that you have 
	
gone
.	.	.	.		
And all that you've ever owned
.	.	.	.		  
Is packed in the hall to go 

			
And how am I supposed to live 
	
without you?
				
A wrong word said in anger and you 
	
were gone

					
I'm not listening for signals
						
It's all dust now on the shelf
			
Are you still working? Still 
	
counting?
				
Still buried in yourself?

.	.	.	.		
And how in the world did we come
.	.	.	.			
To have such an absent love? 

			
And how am I supposed to live 
	
without you?
				
A wrong word said in anger and you 
	
were gone 
				
And how am I supposed to live 
	
without 
			
anyone? 

		
		

	 			
	 		

.	.	.	.		
And how in the world did you come
.	.	.	.		
To be such a lazy love?
.	.	.
And where did you go?
