In Spite of These Times

Force me back, I can't sleep when

you won't let the moon get you down

It may sound

The walls of the world just gave way

It's not like you to be so gone

they fear you picked up that drink from me

From your window

I asked the sky

"When can you fit me in?"

Promise me that you'll never forget in spite of these times

Promise me that you'll never forget in spite of these times

My line in sight of everything

hand held me from the maelstrom

warm hand, a sticky hand

held me from the mob

It just like me to get so gone

I don't recall where I picked up that drink from

From your window

I asked the sky

'When can you fit me in?'

Promise me that you'll never forget in spite of these times

Promise me that you'll never forget in spite of these times

Don't let it slip through your hands

Don't let it slip through your hands

Force me back, I can't sleep when (and sleep late)

you won't let the moon get you down

The walls of the world just gave way

Problems and maelstrom and pestilence and greed

From your window

I asked the sky

"When can you fit me in?"

Promise me that I'd never forget in spite of these times

Promise me that I'd never forget in spite of these times

Don't let it slip through your hands

Don't let it slip through your hands

Don't let it slip through your fingers
