Keep Me
John Ralston
I don't want to be in your service.
I just want to make your short list.
I don't want to wear all your armor.
I just want to be in your chest.
Always keep me in your heart.
I don't want to take you for granted.
I don't want to pay all your debt.
I don't want to be your light shining.
I just want to be in your eyes.
Always keep me in your sight.
I don't want to be your perfect summer.
I want to be there when the winter's in sight.
I just want to be the record you play
When you come home to sleep at night.
I don't want to be your ambulance.
I don't want to be your twisting vine.
I don't want to take out your stitches,
But I'll whisper to you all night.
Always.
