"Cover Me Up" lyrics

"Cover Me Up"

Brown eyed girl won't you come on close
Because it's hard to read your lips between this cigarette smoke
Come away come away with me
Because this air is so thick that I can barely breathe
This air is so thick that I can barely breathe

And I counted years like I should have counted days
But time slowed down when you walked into this place
And I don't know what to do and I don't know what to say
And I don't even know if she feels this way
Oh I don't even know if she feels this way

So cover me up
Cover up my bones
Cover up my heart with sticks and stones so she won't go
Cover up my heart
Cover up my sole
And Cover up my eyes so I can't see her as she goes

And she always goes

Brown eyed girl won't you come on close
Because I need one last kiss before you turn to go
And there's no God up in heaven and no safety net below
So we could die any minute so don't go slow
We could die any minute so don't go slow
So cover me up
Cover up my soul
Cover up my heart with sticks and stones so she won't go

Cover up my heart
Cover up my soul
Cover up my eyes so I can't see her as she goes

And she always goes

Always goes

Always goes
Always goes
