Sleepless With You

These words
Patterns you plant in the soil
Little hooks
Fill books
You're hoping they'll pull you up
Catkin on conifer
I wear you proud as a year in spring
Longing with the swoop of hawks
Bringing hunger to the game
The song is unchanged

Back in my armour glazed
My head's in barricades
I find it easier to dream the day
Following a night spent sleepless with you

All the words connect me through
I was yesterday and yesterday dropped me in you
Left hook
Round the brook
Relatively honest
If only for a crook
Creaking on your porch
Even the mattress applauds
Lets blacken our hull once more
While my hearts intact
Love is the fact

Back in my armour glazed
My head's in barricades
I find it easier to dream the day
Following a night spent sleepless with you

I do not know
My way back
While my heart's
Still intact
Love is the fact
