As I turn my head to your side of the bed
While you wake,
What's on your mind?
To this awful news try not to hold on
The day will come, the sun will rise, and we'll be fine
As long as I feel, as strong as I feel
I will carry you as long as I can
As hard on yourself, please pardon yourself
Do the best you can and that won't go unseen
How do I know when it's time to stop?
Runnin' from the things I do, being things I'm not
Oh I have tried, but I just changed my mind
Every night befalls every morning light
How do I know that you will never stop?
Knowin' me, and trustin' me, and lovin' me a lot
Oh I have tried, but I just changed my mindE
very night befalls every morning light
Well there's only so many ways
You can give your loving to me
I'd give my soul for just for one of them now
I'd give up the drinking, just tell me how
And there's only so many years
I'm going to give my love to you
And I spent the last one hidden away
Screaming my lungs out with nothing to say
As I turn my head to your side of the bed
While you wake, What's on your mind?
To this awful news try not to hold on
The day will come, the sun will rise, and we'll be fine
(I might be distraught right now. But seeing them with you, with lyrics that hit so close to home, standing in front of you with your arms all wrapped around me. In those moments that leave me all glistened eyed and there I know, no matter what I feel, the arguments held, or the painful things we do to the ones we love. There is us in some sense higher than cannot be said, nor explained. Beyond all the petty women and men we meet and use along the way to figure out the one. There is us. It might take us a while and have us kicking ourselves with grief and regret. In the end, I'll see only you. The proof is the thousand people surrounding us, all crowded in, yet they all disappear when we are together. I am ok from being away from the city, I am ok with the life I could possibly live staying here in the south with you.)
