She's says, 'I'm dying every day,
Would you save me?
Would you pick me up and out of this pit?'
She says, 'Darling, I can't recall
Why my chest insists to rise and fall.'
As he's watching her eye-lids close
In the TV glow he can't helping thinkin' that
She's a tightrope walker
And he's the streets below.
So put you arms down, honey,
This ain't no execution,
I was just watching you sleep.
So put that crown down, sugar,
This ain't no crucifiction,
I was just watching you sleep.
I was just watching you.
She says, 'I'm praying every day,
No one hears me,
No one gives a fuck about me and my pain.'
She say, 'Darling I can't recall
Why my hearts wants to beat at all.'
As he's watching her eye-lids close
In the TV glow he can't helping thinkin' that
She's a tightrope walker
And he's the streets below.
So put you arms down, honey,
This ain't no execution,
I was just watching you sleep.
So put that crown down, sugar,
This ain't no crucifiction,
I was just watching you,
I was just watching you sleep.
I was just watching you sleep.
I was just watching you sleep.
I was just watching you wave me a goodbye.
So put you arms down, honey,
This ain't no execution,
I was just watching you sleep.
So put that crown down, sugar,
This ain't no crucifiction,
I was just watching you.
So put you arms down, honey,
This ain't no execution,
I was just watching you.
So put that crown down, sugar,
This ain't no crucifiction,
I was just watching you sleep.
I was just watching you.
