it's a due silence undisturbed
by the sound of her breath
so carefully brush your hair
wipe from your eyes
in steady sequence one by one
she slips away

so close your eyes and sleep to dream
i'm by your side the words to speak
will set our course and make it through
no matter how far i go, my heart remains with you

and i'm not sure what I'm looking for
but it's clear to see
the purpose of my existence is laying here in front of me

so close your eyes and sleep to dream
i'm by your side the words to speak
will set our course and make it through
no matter how far i go...

and if all else fails
you can look up at the sky
because it's the same one
that shines above you
and if all else fails
you can close your eyes
and I'll be right beside you,
i'll be the one by your side

so close your eyes and sleep to dream
i'm by your side the words to speak
will set our course and make it through
no matter how far i go,
no matter how much this hurts
i wanted you to know my heart remains with you
