Tell me I'm only dreaming, tell me he's just sleeping
No, it's not the cold that's making my legs shake
Your soul is safe wherever you might be
Come now, sleep
That in this way he hasn't left
Phone call, I pull my car to the side of the road
Where inside he moves from room to room
It's someone I love being taken away
It's what Jesus said, it's what Jesus said
And love that's enough to keep our friends alive
But sometimes he climbs our spines
When morning comes, we'll both wake up to the sun
'Cause it's not the sound
But take me back to where I was before, I was born
And tell me I'm only dreaming, tell me he's just sleeping
And tell me I'm only dreaming, tell me he's just sleeping
But love is enough to keep our friends alive
To remind our grieving heads
A ghost is taking his place in our hearts, in our hearts
So our souls are safe to wander off wherever they might please
Made up to make children behave
When morning comes, we'll both wake up to the sun
Keeping me, keeping me from sleep
Said about the hell underneath
When morning comes, we'll both wake up to the sun
I think I'd rather believe it's some imaginary place
Tell me I'm only dreaming, tell me he's just sleeping
When morning comes, we'll both wake up to the sun
Taking his, taking his place in our hearts forever
Come now, sleep
And love that's enough to keep our friends alive
It's Timmy's ghost
