lyrics
Won’t you sing me a song for a while, I wanna see you smile, I just wanna see you smile
Won’t you read me the book in your hand, I’ll try to understand, I’ll try to understand, try to understand
Won’t you look in my eyes for a change, I don’t think think its too strange, don’t think that it’s too strange
Won’t you show me the words that you guard, I don’t think its too hard, dont think that it’s too hard, don’t think that it’s too hard
You can spend every day in the shade of a tree
Reaching for only the things you can see
But winter’s a comin’, unfriendly and cold
you‘ll need someone to hold, you’ll need someone to hold, need someone to hold
Don’t you stay in your room for too long, come sing me a song, come sing me a song
Won’t you tell me the tales of your day, i promise it’s okay, i promise it’s okay, promise it’s okay
You can spend every day in the shade of a tree
Reaching for only the things you can see
Winter’s a comin’, unfriendly and cold
You‘ll need someone to hold, you’ll need someone to hold, need someone to hold
And when all that you have fades away, I hope you’ll be okay, I hope you’ll be okay
When you find yourself fading away, I hope you’ll be okay, I hope you’ll be okay, hope you’ll be okay
Won’t you read me the book in your hand, I’ll try to understand, I’ll try to understand, try to understand
Won’t you look in my eyes for a change, I don’t think think its too strange, don’t think that it’s too strange
Won’t you show me the words that you guard, I don’t think its too hard, dont think that it’s too hard, don’t think that it’s too hard
You can spend every day in the shade of a tree
Reaching for only the things you can see
But winter’s a comin’, unfriendly and cold
you‘ll need someone to hold, you’ll need someone to hold, need someone to hold
Don’t you stay in your room for too long, come sing me a song, come sing me a song
Won’t you tell me the tales of your day, i promise it’s okay, i promise it’s okay, promise it’s okay
You can spend every day in the shade of a tree
Reaching for only the things you can see
Winter’s a comin’, unfriendly and cold
You‘ll need someone to hold, you’ll need someone to hold, need someone to hold
And when all that you have fades away, I hope you’ll be okay, I hope you’ll be okay
When you find yourself fading away, I hope you’ll be okay, I hope you’ll be okay, hope you’ll be okay
