Placing a smile at the perfect event,
Gracing your skin with the side of my hand
If I ever leave I could learn to miss you
With sentimental boy as my nom de plume
Let me save you of this wrong
I may never sleep tonight,
As long as you're still burning bright
If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep
I'll still wait till I trade my mistakes,
So they fade away
I feel marooned in this body,
Deserted, my organs can go on without me
You can't fly these wings
You can't sleep in this box with me
Let me save you of this wrong
I may never sleep tonight,
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep
I'll still wait till I trade my mistakes,
So they fade away
Don't let me tell you of this wrong,
Then I'll pull you in
'Cause I am an anchor, save her oar
Feel it sinking in
Don't let me save you of this wrong
I am an anchor, sinking on
I may never sleep tonight,
As long as you're still burning bright
If I could trade mistakes for sheep,
Count me away before you sleep
I'll still wait till I trade my mistakes,
So they fade away
