Sleepless by Timothy Monger Lyrics

Moon over my shoulder
Pale on the garage
While I try not to think about
Where I am going or where I've been
Two paces out of my back door
The collar of my dog
Jangling out from the shadows
Is the world really so small?

Soon, night will be over
I'll hear it in the chorus of birdsong
While the neighborhood
Warms in the light of
The coming day
What seemed so overwhelming?
What passed across my soul
To make me feel undeserving
Of a world so rich and full?

And as the day reveals its missions
Tasks get done, miles get driven
Plans are made, things are tough
Things are great, but soon…
That moon over my shoulder
Beckoning me out
Will it bring peace and slumber?
Or another night of doubt?
