James

for my brother

It's been four hours since you went to bed
But I know sleep hasn't touched your eyes
She only wants for you to rest your head
But you sit awake alone for hours every night

And I'm not there
But I wish I were
I would hold your hand
And sing you all your songs

Good night
This is my song for you
A song you'll never hear
And words you'll never know, oh
Good night
I hope that sleep comes some day
And when it does, I hope you know I love
I love you

The darkness is so pale with moonlight coming through the cracks
Of curtains in your room
Light up the gloom, yeah
If you could sing I bet you would
You never liked to be alone

And I'm not there
But I wish I were
I would hold your hand
And sing you all your songs

Good night
This is my song for you
A song you'll never hear
And words you'll never know, oh
Good night
I hope that sleep comes someday
And when it does, I hope you know I love

I never knew how much I owed to you
How much I owed
I never knew how much I owe to you

Good night
This is my song for you
A song you'll never hear
And words you'll never know, oh
Good night
I hope that sleep comes someday
And when it does, I hope you know

Good night, good night
This is my song
A song you'll never hear, oh
Good night
I hope that sleep comes someday
I hope you know I love

I love you
