Verse1:
when your mind is a mess
so is mine
i can't sleep
cause it hurts when i think
my thoughts aren't at peace
with the plans that we make
chances we take
they're not yours and not mine
there's waves that can break
Verse 2:
all the words that we said
and the words that we mean
words can fall short
can't see the unseen
cause the world is awake
for somebody's sake now
please close your eyes woman
please get some sleep
Chorus:
and know that if i knew
all of the answers i would
not hold them from you
know all the things that i'd know
cause we told each other
there is no other way
Verse 3:
well too much silence can be misleading
you're drifting, i can hear it
in the way that your breathing
we don't really need to find reason
cause out the same door
that it came, well it's leaving,c its leaving
Verse 4:
leaving like a day that's done
and part of a season
resolve is just a concept
that's as dead as the leaves
but at least we can sleep
its all that we need
when we wake we will find
our minds will be free to go to sleep
