Arlow Lillith - ​hospitals

original text at lyrnow.com/1997672
Verse 1
When we first met
You told me you were plannin' to kill yourself
But meeting me stopped you
I still think about it ten years later, we're laying in our bed
And I think, "What did I do to deserve you?"
And how much you'd hate to see me in that hospital chair

Verse 2
Waiting for a call from the in-patient's ward
Waiting for some news about whether you woke
Waiting for my tears to hit your cheek 'cause you heal? 0:43
The nurses will tell me "Visit time's over"
I look at your closed lids and hope will flicker
Back to when I was a kid begging you to stay with me

Verse 3
Now I watch you sleep and I cook you dinner
And I wonder how our lives would be different
I worry about you all of the time
When your eyes are closed and it's late at night
How much would it take for you to slip away?
I'd have to tell your ma, and the look on her face
It runs through my mind whilst you lay in bed
Yeah, it runs through my mind whilst you lay in bed
