This is supposed to be a song lyric. It is a work in progress. It’s almost complete but the verses may need to be altered a bit and/or rearranged.
Before I Sleep
How can you look at the conclusion?
How can you smile through your fear?
Because never again and always
I’ll be here
So shake me and tell me two more times
Stay with me as I fade
I’ve been dancing my whole life
Right here’s where I’ll be laid
When I gaze at you with question marks
Drifting toward the end
Remind me that you’re forever mine
What’s six feet between friends?
I’ll carry the melody
And we’ll sing to the birds
Don’t let me see a tear roll down your cheek
If I forget the words
So shake me and tell me two more times
Stay with me as I fade
I’ve been dancing my whole life
Right here’s where I’ll be laid
You’re a tall drink of water
New every time we speak
But I have promises to keep
Just a mile now before I sleep
A mile before I sleep
So shake me and tell me two more times
Stay with me as I fade
I’ve been dancing my whole life
Right here’s where I’ll be laid
