You’re in bed but I can’t sleep
The homeless man out on the street is juiced
He’s screaming from the sidewalk cause your windows open
I’m not home with you

I whisper you awake and I’ll make your body shake
Until you’re through
Cause I would walk on broken legs
To town and back to buy your bread for you

And I will wait for you
I won’t leave you blue

And when the bar is closing
Then you start to show the broken side of you
Tears all in your eyes
Oh yeah you’re crying bout the guys that left you bruised

I kiss that look right off your face
But you don’t know I’m in a darker place than you
I put your little feet right on my somewhat bigger feet
And walk the moon

And I will wait for you
Yeah I wont leave you blue

And I will wait for you
Yeah I wont leave you blue
Help you tie your shoes
I’ll take care of you
