Sleeping Through Autumn

She was the girl who had finally come along
 Into my life and became a mystery
 Can you be real enough so I can hold you 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
 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 from this world for one second in time
 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
