Can you imagine where I’d be If I didn’t stop for coffee How simple a thing it was That changed “me” to “us”

Together
You’ve told me The nights seem darker And the days are shorter You’ve been sleeping more And eating less For the last week You’ve worn the same Stained dress The curtains are sewn shut The door’s been locked for so long I think it’s a wall I wonder If you’re even in your room at all

Shut In
If I could, I'd steal a star. I'd wrap it up in the night sky So that you'd never forget That you're not alone. If I could, I'd tame the power of the sun To create light in your world that's gone dark. So that you could find your way out And find happiness in a new place. If I could, I'd put a cloud in a bowl. It'll be a safe place for you to hide your secrets. And when it rains, The clouds will take your sadness away. If I had the power, I'd change your world Because the one you live in scares you. Take my world Make it yours.

Dear Sister
If I could, I'd steal a star I'd pick it from the night sky. The very first one that caught my eye and I'd bring it to you in a jar so that you could hold a marvel. If I could, I'd tame the power of the sun So that you would never be afraid of the dark. So that you could feel the lights march and be guarded while I'm gone. If I could, I'd put a cloud in a bowl So you always have somewhere to hide your secrets. And when you want to cry, the cloud will rain and take your sadness away.
