New Favorite Pastime

Brandtson

Twenty-four more to go and it will be tomorrow
one more day older one more day closer to some sort of end
ten am and i'm already ready to say let's call it
a day get me out of this bed and tell me what you meant
when you said everything will be ok the parking lot sea and me wait patiently to hear the still small voice beneath the noise
the traffic and sirens say run away but the trains say stay
we've been around and it's all the same
only the names change just hold my head and tell me what you meant
when you said take heart child be still and quiet know your burdens are mine and dry your eyes
there's so much more to all of this than you can see
so close your eyes tonight and trust in me
hold my head and tell me what you meant
when you said trust in me
