Twilight

Clear Blue Sky
Hey brother can you tell me
Do I seem okay?
Sometimes it's hard to tell
The difference anyway
You know the mice get high
When the cat's away
And she's so far away

Hey sister, can you tell me
Am I drifting out of reach?
I'm sending smoke signals
But I've lost the power of speech
I've tripped and fallen
And I can't get to my feet
And there's no way to sleep
No, there's no way to sleep

And then I feel a gentle touch
Like just enough
But not too much
And remember that I'm not alone
Guess I was just one of the twilight zone

The twilight zone
The twilight zone
What belongs to the night
Is the twilight zone

The twilight zone
The twilight zone
What belongs to the night
Is the twilight zone

Hey sister, can you tell me
Who I really am?
Can you see it in the stars
Or in the lines upon my hand?
Do I have a destiny that I can understand?
'Cause it's not what I had planned

Hey brother, can you tell me
Did I sing it right?
I only know the way
That I sang the song tonight
And if the words go wrong
I guess it's still alright
'Cause it's that kind of night
Yes, it's that kind of night

And when I open up my eyes
First light is in the eastern sky
Try to remember all the things I'm shown
While I was one of the twilight zone

The twilight zone
The twilight zone
What belongs to the night
Is the twilight zone

The twilight zone
The twilight zone
What belongs to the night
Is the twilight zone
