From the recording Walkin' (To Wake)

Lyrics

 
with midnight upon me, I needed a sign
I looked at your photos as if they were mine
I wrote you a letter and threw it away
I called you this morning with nothing to say
 
walking through this garden in a frozen midnight dream
I hope for rain like fire to reveal what is unseen
 
I want you to realize that I mean no harm
no special agenda, no cause for alarm
if you have a feeling you don’t want to share
I’ll try to be quiet, pretend I’m not there
 
walking through this garden in a frozen midnight dream
I hope for rain like fire to reveal what is unseen
                       
there’s hope for a new start where lovers can meet
and noise will be music outside in the street
the darkness will smile, our sorrows will yawn
and we will be dancing in the beautiful dawn
 
walking through this garden in a frozen midnight dream
I hope for rain like fire to reveal what is unseen
