Every night I sleep so good   Then I wake before I should   Every rhyme might not be understood   So I close my eyes and I dream of you      On our first talk we walked a country mile   The old ways seemed they were still in style   I hadn't seen you crying in quite a while   I do all these things just to see you smile      Every night, the street light,   Shines through the window blinds   But I can't read your mind,    Through these parallel lines      I thought in your sleep that you mentioned him   Trying to hear with my conscience dim   Waking up slowly to who I've been   Never reaching the end of what I begin      Every night, the street light,   Shines through the window blinds   But I can't read your mind,    Through these parallel lines      I've taken time to clear my mind   I'm chasing lines almost       Every night I watch you dreaming   Tossing and turning, the street light's beaming   I'm going crazy trying to read your mind      Every night I watch you dreaming   The street light's beaming   Shines through the window blinds,   But I can't read your mind,    Through these parallel lines
