Sleepers Promise

by Purple   Aug 24, 2008


Wrapped in your arms
I can finally sleep
Wrapped in your arms
With these tears I weep

Wrapped in your arms
I know it's where I belong
Here in your arms
I refuse to believe its wrong

Here I feel safe
Wondering if it's an illusion
Here I feel loved
Wishing to find no disillusion

Falling into you
I want to disappear
I'm falling into you
Realizing you might not be real

Still I love these arms
For what they have offered
Still I love you endlessly
No matter if you're offal

These arms are gone
Searching I'm scared
Your comfort is gone
My security is tarred

No arms to hold me
No comfort to put me right
No ears to listen
There's no reason for me to fight

These tears I weep without you
As I think about where I belong
These thoughts I spin without you
I wonder if you think I'm in the wrong

I will love you endlessly
No matter if you're not here
I will love you forever
Still failure I fear

I can guarantee eternity
It comes with a small price
I can guarantee endless love
With a simple gift of my life

I will love you endlessly
No matter what you do
I love you more then anything
Simply because you were you

As I make this choice myself
I place no blame on you
I don't know all my reasons
And it's best I know you knew

These arms I love
I miss them terribly
My hands I restrain
From tugging you frailly

My love should be endless
But these hands should be restrained
No matter where I end
I know I'll be forever changed
