I saw you leave the cities one day,
You were so afraid, you were so afraid
Bathing in a pool of your sweaty tears
You ain't aged in years, you ain't aged in years
I, I made a mattress for you out of my body
Mine's the sheets and I, I
Haven't words to say to you
To make you feel much better
I want you to be, I want you to be,
I want you to be there
I want you to be, I want you to be,
I want you to be here
Oh darling,
How can I lift these worries from my heart?
These worries from my heart?
Whoa, my darling,
It seems we're all grown to nothing but shadow
To nothing but shadow
I made a blanket of my hair
You are so sweet and thin
You are so damn thin
With your anchors gone
You are floating to free
I could not foresee, I could not foresee
I, I made a mattress for you out of my body
Mine's the sheets and I, I
Haven't words to say to you
To make you feel much better
Oh darling,
How can I lift these worries from my heart?
These worries from my heart?
Whoa, my darling,
It seems we're all grown to nothing but shadow
To nothing but shadow, oh oh
Oh darling,
How can I lift these worries from my heart?
These worries from my heart?
Whoa, my darling,
It seems we're all grown to nothing but shadow
To nothing but shadow, oh oh
