overkill - colin hay

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I'll be alright
Perhaps it's just imagination

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
Smell the desperation

At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night from overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Come back another day

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I'll be alright
It's just overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear

Ghosts appear and fade away

why have you been coming to me?
and what has all of this come to mean?
the depth of this love and the way that we know...
i'm not sure how far it reaches.

why have you been coming to me?
to read your heart.
to share your growth.
to challenge with your knowledge.

after confrontation comes a closeness.
a strength.
a wisdom.
an aversion.
my eyes can't meet yours.

this is what living is.
this is what sharing is.
this is what that joy is.
you mean these things.

why have you been coming to me?
though you cannot afford to.
though you shouldn't.
oh how good it was to hold you in my arms.
to squeeze you close.
i never wanted to let you go.
(i've got you on hold)

you are so far.
it was so easy.
i'm so glad to feel you again.

why have you come to me?
why do you want to use me?
and what have i to offer?

am i not cowardly?
am i not insecure?
am i not rude and out of touch?

maybe it's time i see you the way you see me.

you have blessed me so....

so i can share this.
you are all i need.
keep it coming.

i'm giving this up.
my heart is tired.
will no longer be anxious.
will put it off to gain peace.
understanding.

will no longer be who i was...
who i've been...

wait for patience.
love.
contentment.
(it is so difficult with out having just one)

i long for thanksgiving.
for new eyes through which to see.
i'm giving up.
i'm giving this up.

(forget the fools)
