If you see her say hello If she asks how I'm doing let her know If she says: 'Is he O.K.?', say it's slow But he's coming round
And if you sleep with her Through the darkest night And you wake beside her in the early light Kiss her gently like I might And bring her round
If she stumbles if she trips and slows In the darkest rain and through the driving snow Bring her straight here I'll be on my own But bring her round
And every dream and every shadow that you heard Makes you want to cry 'Cause it's a big bad world
If you want her let her know If she's leaving let her go All of this will pass but it passes slow And you'll come around
When the wind blows through October skies And you wake up in the cold twilight And you stretch your hand out and there's Nothing there but the night And the darkness is all around
If you see her say hello If she asks how I'm doing let her know If she says: 'Is he O.K.?', say it's slow But he's coming round
When the rain falls from the blackened sky There's a heart breaking but it feels alright See I should have done something but I let it slide And I'll come around
Every dream and every shadow that you've heard Don't make it cry like you want to die In this big bad world
