Shel Silverstein

Take it from me, I’m the one who would know
What to do in times like this
Take it from me, I’m the one who was told
I’d be used in times like this
Take this time to think about who you are
Take this time to thank the stars
Take this time to think about what you are
It takes time to count the stars
And I know how hard it is to sleep at night
And I know how bad you want to dream at times
And I know how hard…
Waiting for someone to come back
Something like the giving tree
Waiting for someone to come back
Something like the giving tree
Take it from me, I’m the one who would know
What to do in times like this
Take it from me, I’m the one who was told
I’d be used in times like this
And I know how hard it is to sleep at night
And I know how bad you want to dream at times
And I know how hard it is to close your eyes
Waiting for someone to come back
Something like the giving tree
Waiting for someone to come back
Something like the giving tree
Is it selfish to say, at the end of the day when I put my head down
And I rest it on the cloud that’s in front of me
I feel just like Silverstein
