Let Me Sleep Forever

Let me sleep forever
and never make me wake
so i may stay in here
where nothings ever fake

let me stare up at the sky
and see the stars shine bright
so bright my eyes can capture them
and illuminate their light

let me hold the water in my hands
and don't let it slip away
so i can quench my thirst with it
as long as it will stay

let the butterflies fly around
and live forever more
so i can see what its like to fly
through every open door

let me hold you in the darkness
if you can not meet me here
so i can show you what its like
to live without the fear

let me take away the pain
that bottle and the knife
so you can learn to look beyond
that overpowering strife

let me speak the words,those different words
and you can write them down
i know you'd like to remember them
when you come around

just take my hand and take it all
let me be your lever
i promise i wont let you fall
if you let me sleep forever
