The sun was going down
Shadows lengthened on the ground
Snow fell silently and deep
Blanketing the empty streets
In a fragile way
Couldn't face another day
In need of love and care
Broken, under repair
In the desert of unfair
You found me drowning there
Caught my glance of do not care
You took me to your bed
Laid your hands upon my head
Said, "sleep now have no fear"
You are safe for I am here
The moon rose half and high
In a clear and star-filled sky
Snow lay sparkling and deep
Muffling the lonely streets
We'd talked the night away
Into another day
In the morning, you were gone
Now every moment seems too long
My thoughts went round and round
Impossible to sleep
I started burning bridges
When I gave up counting sheep
