Somewhere between waking and sleeping

I've been listening to Air since 2006 , for who does not know they are a French band that I love. This song in particular, is very special for me, it makes me remember of old times, times that I was truly happy, not that I'm unhappy now but I have this feeling of something is missing all the time. Even though I'm surrounded by people, I have a special one in my life, I have family and I have lots and lots of friends, but some days like today I feel completely alone, and I can only find peace somewhere between waking and sleeping! Enjoy!

Without blindness, there is no sight 
You'd see further if you'd only close your eyes 
In unconsciousness I can find peace 
Inside prison walls I can find release 
There is a place that I have seen 

Somewhere between waking and sleeping 
Down at the water's edge 
Somebody waits for me 
Is it too late for me 
It's never too late, he says 
Without blindness, there is no sight 
You'd see further if you'd close your eyes 
Unblock the failure 
Without blindness, there is failure 
People gather by the river 
They were talking 

There is a place that I have seen 
Somewhere between waking and sleeping 
Leaning over the side 
Trailing my fingertips 
Feeling the water slip 
Into the quiet night 

Viewed from the wrong end of a telescope 
I see myself, so far below 
Still and silent, rest in peace 
The thread unravels 
Merciful release 

There is a place that I have seen 
Somewhere between waking and sleeping 
Now I can almost see 
Figures upon the shore 
He's gathering in the oars 
Where are you taking me
