Janis Ian Forever Blue Lyrics

I can't sleep and I can't lie awake I just float in between Tangled up in the sheets on my bed and i can't get you out of my head

'cause the day never comes too soon, and the night is forever blue Was there ever a time - just one night or two - when dreams weren't always you

I'm old friends with the quarter moon that shines on the clock on my wall Hours pass 'til the dawn's breaking throughm and I have cried a river or two

'cause the day never comes too soon, and the night is forever blue Was there ever a time - just one night or two - when dreams weren't always you
And the moon's not to blame as I whisper your name She knows how i drove you away But if prayers had wings then the moonlight would bring you back forever to stay

'cause the day never comes too soon, and the night is forever blue Was there ever a time - just one night or two - when dreams weren't always you and I wasn't forever blue
