Do you ever lie awake at night

Just between the dark and the morning light

Searching for the things you used to know

Looking for the place where the lost things go

Do you ever dream or reminisce

Wondering where to find what you truly miss

Or maybe all those things that you love so

Are waiting in the place where the lost things go

Memories you've shed gone for good you feared

They're all around you still though they've disappeared

Nothing's really left or lost without a trace

Nothing's gone forever only out of place

So maybe now the dish and my best spoon

Are playing hide and seek just behind the moon

Waiting there until it's time to show

Spring is like that now far beneath the snow

Hiding in the place where the lost things go

Time to close your eyes so sleep can come around

For when you dream you find all that's lost is found

Maybe on the moon

Or maybe somewhere new

Maybe all you're missing lives inside of you

So when you need her touch and loving gaze

Gone but not forgotten is the perfect phrase

Smiling from a star that she makes flow

Trust she's always there watching as you grow

Find her in the place where the lost things go
