"I can´t sleep these days"
You said the stars look like a graveyard
And the moon feels like a grave "
What if He came? What if He came for me?
What if ´close enough´s not close enough
And He´s burning family trees?"
The Earth´s on fire in your dreams
For miles, as far as you can see
I offered shelter from the flames and you said to me
"Not much has changed, my hands still shake
My hair still grays when I hear her name."
I tucked you in and swore to you that I´d keep you safe.
Sleep well. Sleep well, angel.
Sleep well. Sleep well, angel.
I´m gonna hold your hand ´til it´s over
We´re gonna make it through tonight
You said the devil sits beside you
Well then, sweetheart, so do I.
I´m gonna hold your hand ´til it´s over
We´re gonna make it through tonight
And if the devil´s still beside you
Then, sweetheart, so am I.
In the middle of the night they stole your light
They took the dawn from emerald eyes
Come 4 AM, youth fades away without goodbyes.
And not much has changed, your hands still shake
Your hair still grays when you hear her name
I´m waking every morning hoping maybe you´re okay.
Sleep well. Sleep well, angel.
Sleep well. Sleep well, angel.
I´m gonna hold your hand ´til it´s over
We´re gonna make it through tonight
You said the devil sits beside you
Well then, sweetheart, so do I.
I´m gonna hold your hand ´til it´s over
We´re gonna make it through tonight
And if the devil´s still beside you
Then, sweetheart, so am I.
You said the stars look like a graveyard
And the moon feels like a grave "
What if He came? What if He came for me?
What if ´close enough´s not close enough
And He´s burning family trees?"
The Earth´s on fire in your dreams
For miles, as far as you can see
I offered shelter from the flames and you said to me
"Not much has changed, my hands still shake
My hair still grays when I hear her name."
I tucked you in and swore to you that I´d keep you safe.
Sleep well. Sleep well, angel.
Sleep well. Sleep well, angel.
I´m gonna hold your hand ´til it´s over
We´re gonna make it through tonight
You said the devil sits beside you
Well then, sweetheart, so do I.
I´m gonna hold your hand ´til it´s over
We´re gonna make it through tonight
And if the devil´s still beside you
Then, sweetheart, so am I.
In the middle of the night they stole your light
They took the dawn from emerald eyes
Come 4 AM, youth fades away without goodbyes.
And not much has changed, your hands still shake
Your hair still grays when you hear her name
I´m waking every morning hoping maybe you´re okay.
Sleep well. Sleep well, angel.
Sleep well. Sleep well, angel.
I´m gonna hold your hand ´til it´s over
We´re gonna make it through tonight

I´m gonna hold your hand ´til it´s over
We´re gonna make it through tonight
And if the devil´s still beside you
