Even Sleeping Lyrics - Singles - Children 18:3

I want to cry but the tears won't come 

There's blood on the ground 

I think I know where it's from 

But my hands are tied as I watch you die 

Step away son, the worst is past, he said 

But I can't see her breath, she's moving on fast 

As the shadowy reaper glides through the trees 

He's coming, he's coming, he's come to steal her away from me 

Oh, what would it take 

To keep you here in my arms bleeding? 

Oh, what would it take 

Is it so much to just start breathing? 

Stay with me, stay with me 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

Stay with me, stay with me 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

I felt a panic but it happened so fast 

Was like noon to dusk but only seconds had passed 

We're here between seen, unseen 

I know you're crying at the hospital bed 

I felt you pleading when I hoped to hear a smile instead 

You can listen to the people and the things they will say 

Or you can listen to your spirit saying send me on my way 

Oh, what would it take 

To keep you here in my arms bleeding? 

Oh, what would it take 

Is it so much to just start breathing? 

Stay with me, stay with me 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

Stay with me, stay with me 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

The sun is down, it's at its end 

I'll follow you as far as I can 

The sun is down but the day won't end 

I'll follow you as far as I can 

The sun is down, she won't mend 

I'll follow you as far as I can 

The sun is down, they say that she won't mend 

And I can't find you, I can't find you 

Oh, what would it take 

To keep you here in my arms bleeding? 

Oh, what would it take 

Is it so much to just start breathing? 

Stay with me, stay with me 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

Stay with me, stay with me 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

Stay with me, stay with me 

(Oh, what would it take) 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

(To keep you here in my arms bleeding?) 

Stay with me, stay with me 

(Oh, what would it take) 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

(Is it so much? Is it so much?) 

Stay with me, stay with me 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

Stay with me, stay with me 

Stay with me, even sleeping 

Oh, what would it take 

To keep you here in my arms bleeding? 

Oh, what would it take 

Is it so much to just start breathing?
