Sleepless - The Decemberists (十二月党)

As you lie before me now

Like a shadow

On a pea green sea

Never thought

That I could find you so hollow

Laying into me

This cup of wine

All salt and brines

Make me sleepy and sorrow shows

A field of tears

That will never yield a single penny

But I don't know

I've got nothing to hold on to

Wished for gold

So I could buy you a palace

By the riverside you'd come in

And I would fill your diamond chalice

You were still alive

But this cup of wine

All salt and brines

Make me sleepy

And sorrow shows

A field of tears

That will never yield a single penny

But I don't know

I've got nothing to hold on to

I've got nothing to hold on to

Were you sleepless

Tearing at the air

Was the water everywhere

Were you fretful

To wade into the room

I'd been wanting

To hear from you oh no

Hand it over hand it over

You're weary lay him down

You did your time

So thank you very much

Hand it over hand it over

So now your hopes are all laid

But you hand it all away

Did his eyelids fix on empty chairs

You had traveled to lay beside

A gentle torture

To watch it all recede

And all the while your mother

Slept beside him oh no

Hand it over hand it over

You're weary lay him down

You did your time

So thank you very much

Hand it over hand it over

So now your hopes are all laid

But you hand it all away

Were you sleepless

Tearing at the air

Was the water everywhere

Were you fearful

And long to run away

From the cold clasp of Illinois

Oh no oh no

Oh hand it over hand it over

You're weary lay him down

You did your time

So thank you very much

Hand it over hand it over

So now your hopes are all laid

But you hand it all away no

But you hand it all away
