Rest your weary eyes
And lean on me tonight
I’ll hold you till you fall asleep
So give up trying to fight
Clear your troubled mind
And give yourself some peace
Just till morning leave the worries
You’ve brought home to keep
Let your feelings go
And cry yourself to sleep
You can’t win every war
So why not recognise defeat
And when you wake you’ll still be here
And you can make another chance
There’ll always be another day
And all your pain will pass away
Just trust in time
Look out at the stars
Then look down from above
Feel your place in time and space
And does it mean so much?
Hard as it may seem
Tomorrow always comes
The darkness doesn’t end until
The morning has begun
