《Monk Alone: The Complete Columbia Solo Studio Recordings of Thelonious Monk- 1962-1968》Waking again, don't know why
It's far too still tonight
Around my bed shadows fall
Thinking of you, where you are
And how it got this far
Wondering when you might call
Tired and so alone
I ignore the TV drone
Every heart beat turns toward the telephone
You're in my mind, in my dream
I'm cursed, or so it seems
Don't know where to take flight
Always the same no doubt
And it turns me inside out
It's so hard to walk away, try as I might
*Cuz I'm broken inside
Pieces of me, intense and obscene
Forced not to show the things that I know
All of the flaws I keep unseen
I turn to you ,what else can I do
Hoping to find a way to see through
A break in the sky to get through the night
Discover the peace I wish I knew
Painting in shades of gray shifting through the disarray
Can I find enough of me to make you stay?
*Cuz I'm broken inside
Pieces of me, intense and obscene
Forced not to show the things that I know
All of the flaws I keep unseen
I turn to you ,what else can I do
Hoping to find a way to see through
A break in the sky to get through the night
Discover the peace I wish I knew
But you , you turn the tide
Wash over me, come set me free
I won't question why
Try to disguise all the things you mean to me
I trust you, what else can I do?
I can't deny something so true
Look at me now, wondering how
I'll keep the peace I find with you...
