Witness

You wanted everything perfect You tried to make it work and it did I was there to be witness to the moments Lined up like post-it notes in the fine print I tried to keep you on the line The phone rang, the middle of the night Sleepless and terrified In my invisible vigil at your bedside You say that now you're an actor Playing a doctor but you're darker inside Trying to mend these delicate bones Negotiating with yourself at the same time I tried to keep you on the line The phone rang, the middle of the night Sleepless and terrified In my invisible vigil at your bedside And we lose The moment here To our past and future fears I tried to keep you on the line The phone rang, the middle of the night Sleepless and terrified In my invisible vigil at your bedside
