Testo Sleepless - The Strive

Testo della canzone Sleepless (The Strive), tratta dall'album Sleepless

Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl.
She was absolutely perfect in an imperfect world.
Forever's a promise, it's more than just a word.
They meant it to each other, of that they were sure.
He came home to her crying at the top of the stairs.
He asked, "baby what's the matter?" as he pushed back her hair.
She said honey I'm sick. What the hell did I do?
And with hate in his heart, he screamed at the moon.
Please don't take her away from me, she truly is everything, that I have left.
As selfish as it may seem, I need you here with me.
Day after day, he stood by her side, while Sleepless in Seattle, played through his mind.
Forever seems longer when you've got your whole life, but forever is forgotten where the end draws the line.
She said "honey just listen, listen to me, we should be together in a boat on the sea."
He held back his tears, and spoke quietly, "When I picture forever, it's you here with me."
Please don't take her away from me, she truly is everything, that I have left.
As selfish as it may seem, I need you here and please just let her go painlessly.
Let her drift on in her dreams. Just don't make her feel a thing.
Just try to get some sleep. This angel deserves her wings.
As leaves fell from the trees, she became a memory, to a man who lost everything.
Forever doesn't mean anything. Just a promise that we keep.
But there's hope for you and me.
She looked to the sky and with one final breath, she said "take this heart from out of my chest. Carry it far with the love you possess. I'm sorry my boy, but I tried my best.
