Lies in My Sleep

(words & music: t.h. gorman ©2018 teztunes)
You sleep so gently in the soft morning sun
And it's a sight I never tire of
It's in those moments 'fore our day has begun
I know that you're the one I'll always love
But hidin' secrets is a dangerous game
And babe, I've never gotten in this deep
This bed's too small for you and me and the shame
So that I'm even tellin' lies in my sleep
I watch you wake up in the soft morning light
Give you a kiss and then you ask for more
You don't know how late I got back in last night
A deed I've done so many times before
And so another kiss won't wash it away
Because this hill of lies is just too steep
Too many lies to even tell in a day
So now I'm even tellin' lies in my sleep
Working late again, lost track of the time
Those ruby lips I love to kiss
Would never open up and feed me a line like this
Too many stories just to cover the shame
From cheatin' lips that don't deserve your kiss
Been goin' on so long, too many to name
And now another for a growing list
But when I look into your innocent eyes
I just can't bear the thought of watching them weep
I'll stand her up tonight or tell her some lie
And then I'll go on tellin' lies in my sleep
Well, I just can't stop tellin' lies in my sleep
Sweet thing, I'm even tellin' you these lies....
Lies In my sleep

You're gone
And I don't know how to live without you
I've got a whole life still to get through
But it's like living without the sun
You're gone
And it's another day of waiting
For that call I won't be taking
I might as well throw out the phone
I'm still left with all these feelings deep inside
And there's no place to keep them warm
Cause nothing's left when love and loneliness collide
An empty heart, an empty world and empty arms
I recall
Every minute spent together
Every day a new love letter
Til I saw the writing on the wall
Where are you
Not a moment I don't wonder
Just to keep from going under
Cause it's all my mind can do
The seasons ended on one bitter winter's day
Now January evermore
I stopped the clock and threw the calendar away
Now you're gone, there's just no point in keeping score
You're gone
And I don't know how to live without you
I've got a whole life still to get through
But it's like living without the sun
You're gone
Daybreak doesn't come around here
Still, I hope that you have found, dear
Your island in the sun
But you'll always be the one
Til this endless night is done.
But you'll always be the one
Til this endless night is done.
You'll always be the one
Til this endless night is done

Tez Howes Moncton, New Brunswick
I'm just an old Canadian fart writing & recording tunes, trying to capture the vibe of pre-millennial popular musics, rock,
blues, jazz, funk, country, pop, etc. Lumiere and Knowhere are primarily indie pop, and The New Codiac Blues is a collection of blues-based tunes.
They're dotted with selected collabs with uber-talented friends in the UK, USA, Australia and Bulgaria of a variety of sounds.
