Album: They Need Love

eleven fifty nine pm
and i lie in my bed awake
afraid that tomorrow and all of it's problems
are only a minute away

i guess that's how i've always been
never content with my place
but scared at the very thought of growing up
and how i compete in that race

you are the one who controls all time
can i bring you all of my fears tonight
cause it's getting cold and it's sad but true
that it's been a while since i laid here with you

i have been hiding from you
silly you know where i'm at
i guess it just took me here scared and alone
to spur on this overdue chat

sorry that i'm rambling on
i just need you to hold me tight
and please will you stay with me until the morning
cause i am so lonely tonight

billions of people each with their needs
but i am so thankful that you're here with me

i know it's me who has fled the scene
and you have been waiting there patiently
prodigal son i have chased my pride
but you're always there with your arms open wide
