[ Featuring The Night Mail ]
You lie awake
You pine and ache
Replay the scene
Of what could have been
My shape's just a hollow
The bed wants to swallow
And this
As dawn creeps within the shadows
Your hand reaches for the pillow
When my head used to rest
And can't be found
No sound
But moving sheets
The memory cheats
The absent friend
Has reached home again
But this shape's just a hollow
The bed wants to swallow
And this
As dawn creeps within the shadows
Your hand reaches for the pillow
When my head used to rest
And can't be found
No sound
But bitter tears
Awoken fears
And the clock counting the hours till daybreak
Arise and shine
My precious find
Walk tall and shine
Despite what I've done
Soon you will fins the shadow's gone
