Did You Sleep Well? Lyrics

"Good mornin', my darlin',"

I said from the door

My bags are all packed,

You won't see me anymore.

The room it was empty except

For your clothes

And a picture

Of the forest through

The dimly lit smoke

Did you sleep well?

Did you sleep fine?

Did you sleep much at all?

All night I heard two voices

From out here in the hall

The first one was lonesome

And the second one was clear

The first one was familiar

As the second drew near

She walked to the window

To expose the light

Her breath hung in silence

Like the fog in the night

The sun raised it's head

From behind the frost

She sat down

By the stove with her

Long legs crossed

Did you sleep well?

Did you sleep fine?

Did you sleep much at all?

All night I heard two voices

From out here in the hall

The first one was ancient

But the second was a gun

The first one was laughin'

Before the second was done

She drew up her eyes

And then turned my way

Her mouth it was movin'

But the words tried to stay

Her posture was thin

And her tears they were tall

Like the picture

Of the forest in the fire

In the hall

Did you sleep well?

Did you sleep fine?

Did you sleep much at all?

All night I heard two voices

From out here in the hallCrooked Still - Did You Sleep Well? - http://motolyrics.com/crooked-still/did-you-sleep-well-lyrics.html

The first it was singing

And the second dressed in red

The first one was hungry

And the second was well fed

My struggles were hard

And my journey was long

My food was your beauty

And my water your song

I returned for your voice

And your precious melody

I heard them both

But you sang not for me

Did you sleep well?

Did you sleep fine?

Did you sleep much at all?

All night I heard two voices

From out here in the hall

The first was a flower

And the second was a train

The first issued warning

And the second brought the rain

Day is breaking,

It's time for me to leave

Each breath

I'm taking reminds me to grieve

You've proven false

But another will be true

Walking tall in the darkness

The whole night through

Will you sleep well?

Will you sleep fine?

Will you sleep much at all?

All night

You'll hear two voices

From out there in the hall

The first will be a mirror

And the second one a dove

The first will be an echo

And the second silent love

Will you sleep well?

Will you sleep fine?

Will you sleep much at all?

All night

You'll hear two voices

From out there in the hall

The first will be a mirror

And the second one a dove

The first will be an echo

And the second silent love
