    The Light

    by: Cyndi Harvell

    There's diamonds in your pockets
    and silver up your sleeves
    Your fingertips are pointed
    straight ahead at me
    And I can't read between your lines
    You make it so hard to move along this far
    I need a map and directions the big red X
    where all your secrets are
    Sleep all day, awake all night
    Alone and undercover the dirty laundry dries
    Sleep all day, awake all night
    while I'm dreaming in my bed until the light
    We're running up a mountain
    We're sweating from the heat
    We'd rather go around it
    But you've blocked off all the streets
    I can't read between your lines
    You make it so hard to move along this far
    I need a map and directions the big red X
    where all your secrets are
    Sleep all day, awake all night
    Alone and undercover the dirty laundry dries
    Sleep all day, awake all night
    while I'm dreaming in my bed until the light
    I don't, I don't know why
    I can't, I can't read your mind
    I know, I know that time
    won't take your side
    Sleep all day, awake all night
    Alone and undercover, the dirty laundry dries
    Sleep all day, awake all night
