While You Sleep - Steve Earle
(never released by steve - recorded by charlie sexton)
Girl there's no moon out tonight
Just your window light
The night hides nothing you should fear
'cause i stand guard out there
Every day i look away when we meet
Every night i'm walking up and down your street
I'm standin' here outside your window
It's drivin' me mad, i can't let go
You'll never even see
This lonely watch i keep
While you sleep
Girl, don't ever think your dreams
Are private as they seem
'cause i know every move you made
From midnight 'till you wake
While you sleep
Every day i look away when we meet
Every night i'm walking up and down your street
I'm standin' here outside your window
It's drivin' me mad, i can't let go
