Sleeping Through Autumn

She was the girl, who finally came along
into my life, and became a mystery
Can you be real enough so I can hold your hand
Hold you tight, close my eyes and everything will be alright

I'm as weak and fragile as can be
Don't lead me on, come on you know you do
Escape all that you're afraid to be, run away with me tonight

And I know it's hard
Yes I know you cry sometimes
But I'll be here by your side as the leaves
And I'll hold your hand through the pain, as the leaves fall, tonight

She was a girl, who this morning left alone
Out of my life as she had come
Can you breathe me in as fast as I can breathe you out
Look in my eyes and realize
That everything will be alright

Yeah, no perfect word no melody
Can sing all that you mean to me
If you give me the opportunity
make your heart real and cry out for me
I'll take you away form this world for one second in time

And I know it's hard
Yes I know you cry sometimes
But I'll be here by your side as the leaves
And I'll hold your hand through the pain, as the leaves fall tonight

I know it's hard
And I Know it hurts you
I know you cry sometimes
And I know you miss her all the time
