Leave Me a Song

Take this world and give me wings
Take all the troubles it brings
All I need is a song
If the world were gone
A song takes away the blinding lights
The separation and the fights
When everyone’s gone
Oh please leave me a song
I know I know, you’re trying
To let go, let go
I know I know, you’re trying
To let go, let go
Hold your head up high, every day and night
And sing me that sweet lullaby
Hold me in your arms, and we’ll be okay
Sing your worries away
These old strings are my refuge
Through the strumming and the blues
When I start playing a song
I know where my soul belongs
