When your mind is a mess, so is mine, I can't sleep
'Cause it hurts when I think, my thoughts aren't at peace
With the plans that we make, chances we take
They're not yours, they're not mine

There's waves that can't break
All the words that we said and the words that we mean
Words can fall short, can't see the unseen
'Cause the world is awake for somebody's sake
Now please close your eyes, woman, please get some sleep

And know that if I knew all of the answers
I would not hold them from you
Know all of the things that I know
We told each other there is no other way
Mm-mmm-mmm

Well, too much silence can be misleading
You're drifting, I can hear it in the way that you're breathing
We don't really need to find reason
'Cause out the same door that it came
Well, it's leaving, it's leaving

Leaving like a day that's done a part of a season
Resolve is just a concept that's just dead as the leaves
But at least we could sleep, it's all that we need
When we wake we would find our minds would be free to go to sleep

And know that if I knew all of the answers
I would not hold them from you
Know all of the things that I know
'Cause we told each other there is no other way
Mm-mmm-mmm
