You help me home under rough April rain
It sings and caresses my ears
You′re left in my head, while I stare at my bed
It’s perplexing but doesn′t bring tears
I think I’ll stay up for the sunrise
Dreams would be noisy and savagely true
I’d rather write a song
And stay awake pond′ring
What life would be like tied to you
You soften my angles and Humor my angers
′Til I’m ready to let them go
What a rock
What a friend
What a bittersweet end
To a year
Full of scars
Full of terminal stars
In vacance of patience
You kept the world still And still do
What a soul
What a heart
What a stone-stolid start
To the dawn
Donning rain
Filling pots full of pain
Where I′d be’s
Beyond me had you
Not held off noise like you do
While your eyes shine like
Dewdrops on honeydew
I still don′t know how to tell you
I wish I knew you’d know this song
I thank you each day, in my own distant way
But without you here, thanking feels wrong
So know in your heart that you′re with me
From the first breath of dawn, to the night
You were there when I called
While I thrashed and I bawled
You held my heart, gentle and tight
You keep me on track and help hold my tears back
‘Til I’m ready to let them go
What a rock
What a friend
What a bittersweet end
To a year
Full of scars
Full of terminal stars
In vacance of patience
You kept the world still And still do
What a soul
What a heart
What a stone-stolid start
To the dawn
Donning rain
Filling pots full of pain
Where I′d be′s
Beyond me had you
Not held off noise like you do
While your eyes shine like
Dewdrops on honeydew
Your eyes shine like
Dewdrops on honeydew
Your eyes shine like
Dewdrops on fresh blades of grass
On the newly cut plains
Of a town blown in glass
Where folks don’t know their names
Oh, they shine like the sun
If the sun were a gentler sight
You know what I mean, right?
You keep my mouth breathing
The sunlight is beaming
But you′re ready to let us go
What a rock
What a friend
What a bittersweet end
To a year
Full of scars
Full of terminal stars
In vacance of patience
You kept the world still And still do
What a soul
What a heart
What a stone-stolid start
To the dawn
Donning rain
Filling pots full of pain
Where I’d be′s
Beyond me had you
Not held off noise like you do
While your eyes shine like
Dewdrops on honeydew
