While My Hand Was Letting Go

	The time that I remember seeing nothing in the sun
	A tremor in my bones at last light something had begun
	The light between the buildings didn't rise as high or strong
	But slanted through the window like it did when days were long
	The frost fell on the park when all the schoolboys went inside
	The postman and policeman dropped their hat and clipped their stride
	And wind stirs on the sidewalk and it hangs outside the door
	Waiting on the summer while we lay right on the floor
	But when I see over the avenues
	And when I know what I know
	Just like the sleep when all our days are new
	Below singing asleep I dreamt beside you while my hand was letting go
	You left a slight impression on the corner of the chair
	If you were walking past it you might never know it's there
	If you were walking past it though and I was standing by
	Oh I was standing near to you as you were walking by
	But when I see over the avenues
	And when I know what I know
	Just like the sleep when all our days are new
	Below singing asleep I dreamt beside you while my hand was letting go
	Asleep I dreamt beside you while my hand was letting go
