I'd like to take all the salt from the seaAnd put it 
inside of your car
I think that would preserve you
And keep you from going to far
I walk the corner, the street lights
Flicker and frown at me
I don't know where you are tonight
But I know where you're not
The kids are waiting to see you at Christmas
But you're not coming back
And I hope I can get out of bed some time soon
But all I can say is please
Please let me lay here
Please let me lay here
Please let me lay here
Please let me lay here
I'd like to take all the salt from the sea
And pour inside of your heart
I think that would preserve the love
That would keep us from falling apart
I can't do this on my own
I need you by my side
I don't know who you are tonight
But I know who you're not
And the kids are waiting to see you at Christmas
But you're not coming back
And they hope I can get
Out of bed some time soon
But all I can say is please
Please let me lay here
Please let me lay here
Please let me lay here
Please let me lay here
