[00:00.56]Late For The Sky - Jackson Browne
[00:23.40]All the words had all been spoken
[00:28.31]And somehow the feeling still wasn't right
[00:36.49]And still we continued through the night
[00:47.14]Tracing our steps from the beginning
[00:51.22]Until they vanished into the air
[00:58.60]Trying to understand how our lives had led us there
[01:10.47]Looking hard into your eyes
[01:14.96]There was nobody I'd ever known
[01:19.28]Such an empty surprise
[01:25.05]To feel so alone
[01:32.44]Now for me some words come easy
[01:37.48]But I know that they don't mean that much
[01:46.12]Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
[01:56.97]You never knew what I loved in you
[02:01.13]I don't know what you loved in me
[02:08.59]Maybe the picture of somebody hoping I might be
[02:20.38]Awake again I can't pretend
[02:26.72]And I know I'm alone and close to the end
[02:35.28]Of the feeling we've known
[02:43.63]How long have I been sleeping
[02:49.46]How long have I been drifting alone through the night
[02:55.58]How long have I been dreaming I could make it right
[03:02.83]If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might
[03:08.00]To be the one you need
[04:00.88]Awake again I can't pretend
[04:06.93]And I know I'm alone and close to the end
[04:15.50]Of the feeling we've known
[04:24.06]How long have I been sleeping
[04:29.56]How long have I been drifting alone through the night
[04:35.47]How long have I been running for that morning flight
[04:42.64]Throught the whispered promises and the changing light
[04:48.23]Of the bed where we both lie
[04:53.18]Late For The Sky
