You were frozen
When you woke up
The hour golden
But you were stuck
Just leave your bed
Before sunset
Don't take your time
Come straight to mine

And please don't go
I need your hands to help control
The balances of everything
Send home
I need your comfort as I hold
The balances of everything

How long?
How long again?
How long?
How long again?

Back before we knew the ways of the world
And needed somebody to think that we did ...
Just talk to me
No don't take heed
I'll take your breath
You take my feet
And please don't go
I need your hands to help control
The balances of everything
Send home
I need your comfort as I hold
The balances of everything
