about

Lie down, my friend,
And let us speak of things mundane.
I know it makes no difference,
But I want to just the same.

And if I said I loved you,
Would it make you smile?
Would it make you happy,
Even for a little while?
And if I held your hand
On your slow decent to hell,
Would it make it easier?
Well, only time will tell.

I swear your eyes
Cut right through the mass distractions.
Oh how lonely it must be
To live alone with your convictions.

And if I said I loved you,
Would it make you smile?
Would it make you happy,
Even for a little while?
And if I held your hand
On your slow decent to hell,
Would it make it easier?
Well, only time will tell.

And if you want an answer,
I’m sorry to confess
I only know what’s in my heart
And even that’s a mess.
But if you’re prone to worry,
Which I know you do so well,
Have faith.
Only time will tell.

Good-bye, go to sleep,
And dream of when we meet again.
I’ll be back with the winter snow,
But keep dreaming until then.

And if I said I loved you,
Would it make you smile?
Would it make you happy,
Even for a little while?
And if I held your hand
On your slow decent to hell,
Would it make it easier?
Well, only time will tell.
