AS I LAY HERE

As I lay here in my bed

I think of all the words you’ve said

I see your eyes so clear and blue

I feel your heart so close and true

 

I miss you when you’re not here

My mind grows black and red with fear

I want your arms around me now

I need your strength to show me how

To live my life another way

A way that’s clear

Not dull and grey.

 

Meet me in my dreams tonight

And put an end to all this fright

Keep me safe and hold me tight

Help me make it through the night.
