Under Your Cover

Under Your Cover In a cot Sitting, waiting Tears shed Heart fainting I watched as she drifted Drifted away It came so early That daggering day Shes gone 'they' placed the lid on Under the cover Dark, black cover She lies there Her body dead It's my heart left Baring the bloodshed The beat is gone My breath slow Everything inside out I once lived for So erase the day I'll fade away Hiden in my covers My dark, silent cover Morning sun streams in A ray through the glass Settles on my night stand Where my Bible was last God, a little hope Another chance in sight As a new chapter In my life you write Your word explains Comforts the pains Voiced from you cover Thick soft cover
