And at the end of the day When the shades have been drawn When the lights have been dimmed When the doors are closed, When the bed is ready for you to crawl in When a single candle burns on your nightstand At the end of the day, When you have shut the world out When you have fallen to your knees When you are all alone When you are naked When you are shivering before your God When your tears fall so fast And your voice rattles and is unrecognizable Like an old car engine about to die I hope, I pray That with an empty breath, a squeak, a sigh You say, after all you have seen, felt, and heard You are still good.

Dear friend,
And at the end of the day When the shades have been drawn When the lights have been dimmed When the doors are closed, When the bed is ready for you to crawl in When a single candle burns on your nightstand At the end of the day, When you have shut the world out When you have fallen to your knees When you are all alone When you are naked When you are shivering before your God When your tears fall so fast And your voice rattles and is unrecognizable Like an old car engine about to die I hope, I pray That with an empty breath, a squeak, a sigh You say, after all you have seen, felt, and heard You are still good.
