For While You Slept Lyrics

For awhile
For while you slept

The ocean between
This night and your breath
Your heart and my sleep
Hold out
Your lovely hand
Hold out

Take this weary man.
Far away
Night may you take

Me by the hand
No fog will break
The sight that we have
Hold out
Your folded hand
Hold out

Take this weary man
Far away
Now that we slept

Night may you hold
All the distances found
Gently unfold
Hold out
Your folded hands
Hold out

Take this weary man
Far away
