Tooth & Nail Records - Timothy lyrics

It's not the cold making my legs shake It's Timmy's ghost taking his place in our hearts forever It's not the sound keeping me from sleep It's what Jesus said about hell underneath I think I'd rather believe it's some imaginary place Made up to make children behave So our souls are safe to wander off Wherever they might please Your soul is safe wherever you might be Come now, sleep Come, now sleep Tell me I'm only dreaming Tell me he's just sleeping And when morning comes We'll both wake up to see the sun And love that's enough to keep our friends alive Phone call I pull my car to the side of the road No, it's not the cold making my legs shake It's someone I love being taken away A ghost taking his place in our hearts Where inside he moves from room to room But sometimes he climbs our spines To remind our grieving heads That in this way he hasn't left Tell me I'm only dreaming Tell me he's just sleeping And when morning comes We'll both wake up to see the sun And love that's enough to keep our friends alive Take me back to where I was before I was born It's like sweet and dreamless sleep It sounds like heaven to me
