lyrics

23 years, asleep at the wheel,
I'd traveled so long in stand still,
so where's the valley I was told I'd see?
still 23 miles before me.

I sent you a message,
and peered through the window,
you you gave me directions,
but I fell asleep again.

23 years with eyes off the road,
it took me so long to let go,
so where's the view I thought I'd behold by now?
still 23 years away somehow.

I left you a message,
etched in the ether,
you sent me an angel,
and I fell onto my knees.

I'm praying for the day
when you manifest in darkness,
come to lead me away
from these labyrinths of thought
I've held so long I can't explain
whence they hold me,
and as night releases grip,
I appreciate the contrast more than
day alone could give,
as I labor through this winter
for that long summer's kiss,
oh, how I long for this.

You sent me an angel,
but I fell asleep again.

I left you a message,
etched in the ether,
you sent me an angel,
but I fell asleep again,
oh no...
