Every night I sleep so good

Then I wake before I should

Every rhyme might not be understood

So I close my eyes and I dream of you

On our first talk we walked a country mile

The old ways seemed they were still in style

I hadn't seen you crying in quite a while

I do all these things just to see you smile

Every night, the street light

Shines through the window blinds

But I can't read your mind

Through these parallel lines

I thought in your sleep that you mentioned him

Trying to hear with my conscience dim

Waking up slowly to who I've been

Never reaching the end of what I begin

Every night, the street light

Shines through the window blinds

But I can't read your mind

Through these parallel lines

I've taken time to clear my mind

I'm chasing lines almost

Every night I watch you dreaming

Tossing and turning, the street light's beaming

I'm going crazy trying to read your mind

Every night I watch you dreaming

The street light's beaming

Shines through the window blinds

But I can't read your mind

Through these parallel lines
