In my darkest of nights
When I nearly gave up this fight
A mother should never have to watch
Her son lose the last drop hope he's got
We prayed, god knows, we prayed
But god is still running a little late
Between you and me
I always tried to believe
But we've let that go
And now we're free
Cuz all I need is for you to say
Somehow it'll all work out ok
Soon I'll have another sleepless night
But you won't close your eyes till I close mine
You won't close your eyes
When my trust was lost
And lines I thought that were safe were crossed
A mother should never have to hear
Her son lost the one that he holds most dear
You dried my weary eyes
The night where I never felt more tossed aside
Between you and me
I never thought she would leave
But you helped me see
What my life could still be
Cuz all I need is for you to say
Somehow it'll all work out ok
Soon I'll have another sleepless night
But you won't close your eyes till I close mine
You won't close your eyes till I close mine, mine
You won't close your eyes
All my pain that you can possibly take
All the sorrow without any breaks
Selflessly loving for 25 years
Never a moment you haven't been here
Cuz all I need is for you to say
Somehow it'll all work out ok
Soon I'll have another sleepless night
But you won't close your eyes till I close mine
You won't close your eyes till I close mine, mine
You won't close your eyes
