Gather Me

Darling, it’s late, and my body is aching I’ve been up racing these ghosts round and round I’ll come to bed and I’ll ask you to hold me ‘Cause when you enfold me my mind settles down I get so scattered by worries and plans But when I fall to pieces then you are the only man who can Gather me, gather me, gather me Oh you gather me up in your arms Darling, you know I can get so distracted I’m chasing rabbits, and then I lose track. But when I get lost in the thoughts I am thinking You are the beacon who helps me get back Sometimes I’m scattered by so much to do But when I fall to pieces then baby the only glue is you Gather me, gather me, gather me Oh you gather me up in your arms If I am a kite, baby, you are the string I can fly without coming untethered And if you are a riverbed, I am a stream I can flow while you hold me together Gather me, gather me, gather me Oh you gather me up in your arms
