cover me

Glenn Hughes

Somewhere between the lines unbroken
There lies the sacred part of me
Behind the door that once was opened
Is where I fell from grace you see

Inside I feel the pressure
My faith I cannot measure
Seems like the wound has deepened
I wake but I'm not breathing
And I say

Cover me, while I'm sleeping, won't you cover me
Cover me, if I'm bleeding, won't you cover me
Cover me, be my shadow, won't you cover me
Cover me, I will follow, won't you cover me

So won't you take this captured spirit
Now won't you hear my final plea
You got to cut the wire
Release your sympathy
Unspoken words that heal
This dream just can't be real
And I say

Somewhere between the lines unbroken
There lies the sacred part of me
