Where Do You Go

from Fields & Fortresses [Album] by Anthony Retka

lyrics

I've asked a million times it seems
I know it's only in my dreams
I know it's probably wrong
But I don't care, my nights are long

And it's a funny kind of thing
When you're the only one to sing
When there are two who do it well
But only one of us can tell

Where do you go when you sleep
Where do you hide all the things that you keep
What do you think of late at night
When your eyes meet the burned out starlight
Where do you go?

What do the lines on your hands say
What are the notes you have on display
The walls around you seem to care
Though the plaster has fallen bare

And there are moments on a stage
When your voice calms all the rage
When your eyes look right back
Beyond the light, beyond the black

Where do you go when you sleep
Where do you hide all the things that you keep
What do you think of late at night
When your eyes meet the burned out starlight
Where do you go?
Where do you go?

I know we don't see eye to eye
Beyond the clouds, beyond the sky
But I think there's always more
If you knock upon my door

I've watched you talk about your day
Your hands always give it away
And your songs do it too
As you shift in and out of view

Where do you go when you sleep
Where do you hide all the things that you keep
What do you think of late at night
When your eyes meet the burned out starlight
Where do you go?
Where do you go?
