Lyrics
Every night I lie asleep eyes wide open
Contemplating all the things I do
This dream will take me far away down in the valley
And I'm waiting, waiting there for you
Every night I lie asleep and fight completeness
Fending off the devils in my head
Gracious living has me down in the valley
And I'm climbing, climbing from my bed
Through the haze of desert heat I see a distant place
It has alluded me it keeps it's distant face
Every night I lie asleep eyes wide open
Thirsting for the dream that makes me think
The only thing that cleanses me down in the valley
Is the water, the water that I drink
Through the haze of desert heat I see a distant place
It has alluded me it keeps it's distant face
I see everything from this naked room
I see the wane of dusk, the rising of the moon
But I can't see heaven I don't feel the sacred part
Cause all I've ever lived is straight from the heart
