Lyrics: Be Here Long

Close my eyes and think of you Go to sleep and dream of you We don't get to be here long I gave you the best of me Loved you more than anything But we don't get to be here long We don't get to be here long Though my heart may be in pieces My eyes are still set on you And though I can't keep it together I know that you'd want me to Oh, I'm swimming in the grief And there's no anchor that could hold me down I don't want any relief Cause I don't wanna let you go right now Close my eyes and think of you Go to sleep and dream of you We don't get to be here long I gave you the best of me Loved you more than anything But we don't get to be here long Oh your moments were a charity They gave me more than I could lose Oh I know you found the promise land But I'm still here and I'm missing you Close my eyes and think of you Go to sleep and dream of you We don't get to be here long I gave you the best of me Loved you more than anything But we don't get to be here long When the day comes And the fire is out I wanna know that I gave you all, I gave you all I had When the day comes And the fire is out I wanna know that I gave you my everything Close my eyes and think of you Go to sleep and dream of you We don't get to be here long I gave you the best of me Loved you more than anything But we don't get to be here long Oh, we don't get to be here long We don't get to be here long
