Holly Near - Sit With Me lyrics

Finding a friend in you to wake me in the morning Finding a friend in you to travel through the night Finding a friend in you to be there in the morning Finding a friend in you to hold me through the night When I'm frightened by the work that I must do When I'm frightened, I know wherever I am I can call on you, when I'm frightened, I can call on you Please sit with me through the night And tell me it's all right to fall apart with you ‘Cause I'm so tired and I'm so scared I'm so sad about the world tonight And sometimes I feel I can't defend myself, my love, or my light The thought of surviving just makes me want to die Come lay beside me, hold me while I cry Please sit with me through the night Tell me it's all right to fall apart with you ‘Cause I'm so tired and I'm so scared I need to grieve and weep and scream and moan And sometimes I feel I can't defend myself, my life, or my home But you know tomorrow, I'll be back on my feet It's not in me, my friend, to accept defeat But won't you please sit with me through the night And tell me it's all right to fall apart with you Finding a friend in you to wake me in the morning Finding a friend in you to travel through the night Finding a friend in you who will be there in the morning Finding a friend in you to hold me through the night
