I will take my place
In front of engines roaring
I’ll lay myself between
the rain as its pouring
and if the vision looks too blurry
the pictures out of place
just know I'm looking at you smiling
as the tears run down my face
and if the time comes
when time takes you
I can only pray that it takes me too
and when the sleep comes
and lays down your head
I'll be sure to let it take me instead
lying in the grass
in between the seconds counting
I’ll cherish each moment
we spent in suns shining
but when the moon comes up
and forces us to sever
I can promise you
I’ll turn the seconds into forever
but if the time comes
when time takes you
I can only pray that it takes me too
and when the sleep comes
and lays down your head
I'll be sure to let it take me instead
forget all the bad dreams
the things left unsaid
just focus on my lips
as they place sweetly on your head
don't worry about the shaking
its because of the meds
just know I love you
not just for now
but forever instead
so shut your eyes
and dream a better dream
then the life you lived through
and all the things that you've seen
lay your hands upon your chest
as you drift slowly
fast asleep...
when the time comes
when time takes you
I can only pray that it takes me too
and when the sleep comes
and lays down your head
I will beg
to let it take me instead
