Joy Williams Before I Sleep song lyrics

Oh, ghosts keep whispering

Oh, the feather of a raven's wing turned white by the bird's cheeks

Ooh, this chill, when it gonna leave my bones?

Take the ache so I can go

And be washed in the wilderness

Oh, carry my body 'cross the frozen ground

While the moon burns bright and the fire fades out

I got miles and miles to go before I sleep

Before I can feel anything, before I'm free

I got miles and miles to go before I sleep

Wind blows, covers every single track

If I wanted to, I couldn't go back

Oh, I just keep stumbling

Oh, and it's a sinned kiss facing unforgiving winds

Feel the cold, it's creeping in, oh

And I just keep stumbling on

Oh, carry my body 'cross the frozen ground

While the moon burns

I got miles and miles to go before I sleep

Before I can feel anything, before I'm free

I got miles and miles and miles

Til the dark gives way to dawn

Til the winter, can't hold on

I'll crawl tonight, can't walk til I run

I've got miles and miles to go before I sleep

And I've got miles and miles to go before I weep

Before I can dream or feel anything

I got miles and miles to go before I sleep

Oh, before I can feel anything, before I'm free

I got miles and miles to go before I sleep

Before I sleep
