Alright.

For tonight just stay with me,

all my words like a plea,

you crawl into bed,

right next to me,

I want everything you are,

I'll just settle to be in your arms,

nobody has held me,

nobody has cared for me,

I've been the provider,

I always give what I need,

You're right next to me,

I finally stop shivering,

You keep whispering things to me,

Your words are soothing to my tensed nerves,

I want to touch you,

just like you touch me,

with that loving feeling

that jolts me back to life,

You're a kind man,

Nothing in you is mean,

You're the safest place I've been,

I don't want to be scared again,

My minds going so fast,

I hear every little beat of your heart,

I start to ramble,

You silence me,

I don't move,

I'm scared for you to leave,

You kiss my forehead.

"Everything's alright".
