And if at Night I Cannot Sleep

And if at night I cannot sleep,
Then let me write soul-deep;

Let me make my way to day,
Say what is much brighter,
And higher climb to a star
That does shine from afar

Let me endure and adore
Such quiet before me laid
As paid for by restless soul
With gaping hole to be fill

Yes, if at night I cannot sleep,
Then let me write soul-deep
