AIR LYRICS - Somewhere Between Waking And Sleeping

"Somewhere Between Waking And Sleeping"



Without blindness, there is no sight

You'd see further if you'd only close your eyes

In unconsciousness I can find peace

Inside prison walls I can find release

There is a place that I have seen



Somewhere between waking and sleeping

Down at the water's edge

Somebody waits for me

Is it too late for me

It's never too late, he says



[Left Channel]

Without blindness, there is no sight

You'd see further if you'd close your eyes

Unblock the failure



[Right Channel]

Without blindness, there is failure

People gather by the river

They were talking



There is a place that I have seen

Somewhere between waking and sleeping

Leaning over the side

Trailing my fingertips

Feeling the water slip

Into the quiet night



Viewed from the wrong end of a telescope

I see myself, so far below

Still and silent, rest in peace

The thread unravels

Merciful release



There is a place that I have seen

Somewhere between waking and sleeping

Now I can almost see

Figures upon the shore

He's gathering in the oars

Where are you taking me
