Sometimes you can live a whole lifetime in that time between sleep and awake.
The Sun’s Still In My Eyes (Roll Over) Howard Wooden and Janine Hubbard ©2003 Lightening Ridge Music (BMI) Roll over and it's morning As the sun snuck through the shade Through the rip in the corner The one that damn cat made. It doesn't matter how I lie The sun's directly in my eye. Roll over and it's later Sounds are filling up my ears They come right through the pillow Still wet from last night's tears. It doesn't matter how I try I can't help but cry. Roll over and it's morning One whole week has passed me now I know I ought to get up But I can't remember why. Roll over and it's later How many years have passed me now And what the time of day is I don't really care somehow. Thoughts and dreams are hard to separate Who cares if I'm late. Roll over and it's morning Of the day I am to die No sounds are in my head now My whole life has passed me by. But I'm still in my bed And the sun's still in my eye.
