you slipped from my arms i knew you had to go such a heavy heart who could hope to hold i know where you re going and that s the hardest part no matter where tonight ends you won t escape your broken heart stay a while stay a while stay a while helpless for the words and it tightens up the air it s not what you deserve it s not for lack of care inside of me is screaming out and praying for my prayers distracting and unworthy of each and every burning tear seems insincere do i see god in all of this maybe all along it s just that we re so small and simply not as strong strong like wings of silver and feathers made of gold to carry heavy hearts to cover all our helpless souls to cover all of us under wings of gold and silver sometimes we have to hide for shelter from this bitter winter at least tonight under wings of gold and silver sometimes we have to hide for shelter from this bitter winter at least tonight at least tonight stay a while stay a while stay a while
