Little Fire




Some nights, I can't sleep....and I know its okay, and that night time is just hard every once in a while, but I have to remind myself of the beautiful things in my life while I'm at it.

My friend, come stand beside me

Lately, I'm feeling so lost

A flood came and washed the stones of the path away

And a hot sun turned the mud to dust



Calling the sheep in for the evening

There's a voice, calls above the howling wind

It says comes rest beside my little fire

We'll ride out the storm that's coming in



My friend, you know me and my family

You've seen us wandering through these times

You've seen us in weakness and in power

You've seen us forgetful and unkind



All that I want is one who knows me

A kind hand on my face when I weep

And I'd give back these things I know are meaningless

For a little fire beside me when I sleep



All that I want is one who knows me

A kind hand on my face when I weep

And I'd give back these things I know are meaningless

For a little fire beside me when I sleep
