Lyrics
The night is thick with silent stars And all their unheard energy It makes me want to scream out loud But I don’t want to wake you no, no I’m gonna run, go all outside Away from all these sealed windows Away from all the electric light You won’t know that I’m gone That I’m gone When you’re sick with sleep I blow the darkness from the sky And fill the air with your name And promise that I’ll be good again When you’re sick with sleep I blow the darkness from the sky And fill the air with your name And worship the world from which you came Out in the grass that’s been left alone Behind the church all old with stone I take a minute and close my eyes Till all I see is you Your legs are branches in the sky Up there for all the world to see So long and slender, so pale and white Now I’m ready for you I’m ready for you When you’re sick with sleep I blow the darkness from the sky And fill the air with your name And promise that I’ll be good again When you’re sick with sleep I blow the darkness from the sky And fill the air with your name And worship the world from which you came
