No Other Way

When your mind is a mess so is mine
I can't sleep 'cause it hurts when I think
My thoughts aren't at peace with the plans that we make
Chances we take, they're not yours and not mine
There's waves that can break

All the words that we say
And the words that we mean
Words can fall short
Can't see the unseen
'Cause the world is awake for somebody's sake
Now please, close your eyes, woman
Please, get some sleep

And know that if I knew all of the answers
I would not hold them from you
Know all of the things that I know
We told each other there is no other way

Well, too much silence can be misleading
You're drifting, I can hear it in the way that you're breathing
We don't really need to find reason
'Cause out the same door that it came, well, it's leaving, it's leaving
Leaving like a day that's done and part of a season
Resolve is just a concept that's as dead as the leaves
But at least we can sleep, it's all that we need
When we wake, we would find
Our minds will be free to go to sleep

And know that if I knew all of the answers
I would not hold them from you
Know all of the things that I know
'Cause we told each other there is no other way
