A late night conversation

It may sound strange, but I want to know the reason you can’t sleep
As I lay awake I worry, sometimes a bit too much
Looking at the ceiling, the silence can be too loud
My body is tired, but my mind is racing from one thing to another

A late night conversation with a friend sometimes can calm my heart
A late night conversation with a friend sometimes can make me more anxious
A late night conversation with a friend sometimes can fill my heart with love
A late night conversation with a friend sometimes can have me looking at the clock

I don’t know the reasons that you can’t sleep my dear
I don’t know the reasons that you can’t be with your teddy bear
I don’t know the reasons that leave you hopeless and depressed
I don’t know the reasons that God has us each in different seasons

It’s not that I don’t care
It’s just that it is getting late
It’s just that my brain is all processed out for the day
It’s just about finding that delicate balance of sleep and waking up
