Sit With Me

Finding a friend in you to wake me in the morning
Finding a friend in you to travel through the night
Finding a friend in you to be there in the morning
Finding a friend in you to hold me through the night
When I’m frightened by the work that I must do
When I’m frightened, I know wherever I am
I can call on you, when I’m frightened, I can call on you
Please sit with me through the night
And tell me it’s all right to fall apart with you
‘Cause I’m so tired and I’m so scared
I’m so sad about the world tonight
And sometimes I feel I can’t defend myself, my love, or my light
The thought of surviving just makes me want to die
Come lay beside me, hold me while I cry
Please sit with me through the night
Tell me it’s all right to fall apart with you
‘Cause I’m so tired and I’m so scared
I need to grieve and weep and scream and moan
And sometimes I feel I can’t defend myself, my life, or my home
But you know tomorrow, I’ll be back on my feet
It’s not in me, my friend, to accept defeat
But won’t you please sit with me through the night
And tell me it’s all right to fall apart with you
Finding a friend in you to wake me in the morning
Finding a friend in you to travel through the night
Finding a friend in you who will be there in the morning
Finding a friend in you to hold me through the night
