In a hospital room, I'm
Struggling to stay awake, and you
Are laying on your deathbed, but
You don't know it yet
It's all just a bit too much, and so I
Step outside for just a moment
For just a moment
I stare out a dirty windowpane
And listen to the rain
As it pours down and it covers everything
It masks the noise from all the medical machinery
I am left with the sound of
your labor breathing.
But you are close to going home now
Your father welcomes you with open arms
A room has been prepared, and so you don't have to be scared
As you leave behind the struggles of this world
The next day came with no improvement,
Leaving you to explain
These things take time, these things take time
You told me you were ready, and that
You were afraid to die
He is always watching over you and I
But you are close to going home now
Your father welcomes you with open arms.
A room has been prepared, and so you don't have to be scared
As you leave behind the struggles of this world
Do do do, do do... do, do doo doo doo do do...
Do do do, do do do do do do, do.
Do do do, do do... do, do doo doo doo do do...
Do do do, do do do do, doo doo do, do.
But you are close to going home, now...
Your father welcomes you with open arms.
A room has been prepared...
And so you don't have to be scared,
As you leave behind the struggles of this world.
