When everyone has gone to sleep
And you are wide awake
There's no-one left to tell your troubles to
Just an hour ago
You listened to their voices,
Wilting like a river over underground
And the light from downstairs
Came up soft like daybreak,
Dimly like the heartache of a lonely child

And if you can't remember
A better time,
You can have mine, little one

In days to come,
When your heart feels undone;
May you always find an open hand
And take comfort wherever you can, you can, you can

And oh, It's a strange place
And oh, everyone with a different face
But just like you thought when you stopped here to linger,
We're only as seperate as your little fingers

So cry, why not?
We all do
Then turn to the one you love
And smile a smile that lights up all the room
And follow your dreams,
In through every out door
It seems that's what we're here for

And when you can't remember
A better time,
You can have mine little one

In days to come,
When your heart feels undone;
May you always find an open hand
And take comfort, there is comfort
Take comfort wherever you can, you can, you can
