I can not sleep I lie awake 'neath the window The alley's howling We We waded through leaves Silently Up the hill Searching for the moon I do not dream Of anything worth remembering This city's haunting me We climbed up that tree Wantonly To the high branch Reaching for the moon The seamless continuity of my days and my nights Amassing black soot on the bags of my eyes

Moonbeam
I can not sleep I lie awake 'neath the window The alley's howling We We waded through leaves Silently Up the hill Searching for the moon I do not dream Of anything worth remembering This city's haunting me We climbed up that tree Wantonly To the high branch Reaching for the moon The seamless continuity of my days and my nights Amassing black soot on the bags of my eyes
