" Get To You"
My wings are tattered and my eyes are red...
Trying my best to fly to you before we go to bed..
Swooping down through the trees, my feet tucked tight..
It's getting dark outside, must get to you before the night..
My mind's gone to mush, my hands are all chapped...
Racing across this sky before the moon comes back..
I'm at your window now with my heart on my sleeve...
Tell me to stay, hold me tight and don't make me leave..
I will keep you warm tonight, your head on my chest..
Can't promise you the sky but I will give you my best..
