Sleep, easy with eyes closed Easier than most, most of the time And I’ll stay by your bedside Till morning hides the night like a steady machine And the sun will seem brighter again And your eyes will be rivers as you’re telling your best friend I might not see you again
And I’ll stay by your bedside I’m stronger than eye sight, most of the time I’ll be like a brick wall With legs braced I won’t fall, I’m a steady machine But my eyes will grow tired again And I’ll fall into dreams where you’re getting out of bed And becoming whole again
And my eyes are tired My tears are stains The clock keeps moving on There’s a selfishness in all of this And I am holding tightly to your hand But your grip is gone And I’m losing hope And quietly but still out loud I’ll say Oh take me with you, take me too
