Insomnia Blues No. 20/42

I keep looking back at life / Just trying to make sense
Of all the things I’ve done / That I wouldn’t do again
And it makes me kind of tired / And it robs me of my sleep
But I’m reminded to be thankful / For all the things I could keep

It’s an early March morning / I’m thinking of these things
When regret wins the hour / Take deep breaths with the trees

{Chorus}

Smell the scent of the seasons
Hear the sounds on the lake
With the love of a family
Strong bonds are hard to break

When the night moves so slow / And the morning’s so far away
And the silence does surround you / Like the fog out on the lake

And when the morning finally comes / You just cannot believe
All those hours were wasted / While you searched for peace


Now the sun’s moving high / And it makes you feel strong
Then a couple hours more / That feeling has moved on

You make it through the day / But fearful of the night
But thankful you have someone / To love and hold you tight
