Lyrics for I Couldn't Sleep

I couldn't sleep Didn't want comforting Just company to sleep And then in dreams we meet And stay asleep I awoke feeling restless Didn't know quite where I was Though I felt far away and cold It was so late but my mind was curious It was quiet, snowing with frosted windows I had a book but wasn't reading just watching you Didn't want comforting Just company, oh be sweet It could go either way Based on what they say I didn't wish to be somewhere else Your face was comforting to me I don't remember you smiling But just the same I didn't know you You didn't know what to make of me It was peaceful that night A kind of friendship all too serious
