Well people I think thats it, minus the stuff that the second
guitar does. but if you want to play this for your girlfriend
your not gonna need that.
Please keep close to mind that this is my first posting so I am
sorry for any confusion caused by my atempt to clarify things.
thank you.
-Franchi

(the lyrics)
When your mind is a mess so is mine I can’t sleep
Because it hurts when I think when my thoughts aren’t at peace
With the plans that we make and the chances we take
They’re not yours they’re not mine
There are waves that can break
All the words that we said and the words that we mean
And the words can fall short, can’t see the unseen
Because the world is awake so for somebody’s sake
Now please close your eyes
Woman, please get some sleep
Sleep and know that if I knew all of the answers
I would not hold them from you
Know all of the things that I know
Because we told each other there is no other way
Too much silence can be misleading
You’re drifting I can hear it in the way that you’re breathing
We don’t really need to find reason
Because out the same door that it came well it’s leaving
It’s leaving
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 could sleep, it’s all that we need
When we wake we would find, our minds would be free
To go to sleep
Sleep and know that if I knew all of the answers
I would not hold them from you
Know all of the things that I know
Because we told each other there is no other way
