Come closer, darling
Don't be afraid, precious
Yes, things are falling
But it's okay
You're here with me now
Curled up in my arms.
Don't bother with whos and hows
It's never really made any sense
To anyone, anyone at all.
Turn a blind eye
Just forget the flames
Don't even ask why
Things happen this way.
Ignore the pain
Please only close your eyes
Imagine
We're on a train.
We're traveling away
Past the great trees
From places to pray
And great big mountains
To wide green plains
And clear, pretty fountains.
We'll see it all,
The beauties of the world,
Great and small.
Now hun,
We both hear it
But nothing can be done.
The stomping on the stairs
And bloodthirsty screams
They're nothing to us.
No more than some bad dreams
Please don't be scared
I'm here.
I'm here beloved
Just breathe in
I'll hold your head
And caress your cheek
Taking the pain.
As long as I'm here
There's no need to fear
So just close your eyes, love
I'm here.
