You're looking so fine sitting by yourself
Just an old mind looking down an old sealed well
With such a pretty face but I can tell
You ain't ever gonna see for yourself, hell
And you don't have to say it in words
I got it down for better or worse
I know you better than most
You have my love and I keep yours close
I can see signs I couldn't see then, well
You're only truly calm when you're sleeping
And I'm outta line, I'm outta line
But I could watch you for through midday
So I've decided to only be your friend
Though I'd rather hold you close than pretend
Sitting here counting days, I keep my eyes on the waves
(Love, sweet love)
Singing my midnight blues, that's how I remember you
(Love, sweet love)
Holding on to thoughts, them surround these walls
(Love, sweet love)
So throw your fear to the sky, I'll be 'round when it dies
You don't have to hide your ways with me
Does love tie down rather than set free?
There's no country left to search or hide
What you're escaping is burning on the inside
I'm hoping you will come out stronger
I'm here for a little while longer, nothing wrong but
Feel free to use me in any way you please
I still feel the need to pick you up and bring you ease
I've got so much to say
Write it down, don't let it go to waste
What I feel won't get me far
Trying to get a hold of who you are
All I need is the pure sunshine
Before the darkness clouds my mind
I can see I'm running out of time
But you can't blame me for trying, I'm
Sitting here counting days, I keep my eyes on the waves
(Love, sweet love)
Singing my midnight blues, that's how I remember you
(Love, sweet love)
Holding on to thoughts, them surround these walls
(Love, sweet love)
So throw your fear to the sky, I'll be 'round when it dies
Sitting here counting days, I keep my eyes on the waves
(Love, sweet love)
Singing my midnight blues, that's how I remember you
(Love, sweet love)
Holding on to thoughts, them surround these walls
(Love, sweet love)
So throw your fear to the sky, I'll be 'round when it dies
