[Verse 1]
In cases such as these I'd like a hand
Don't wake me up without a master plan
With sight and sound becoming fragile
Don't you understand?
When things that once were beautiful are bland
[Chorus]
And when I feel like I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile, soak it in awhile
If we can hold on
We can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us
[Verse 2]
In truth there is no better place to be
Than falling out of darkness still to see
Without a premonition, could you tell me where we stand?
I'd hate to lose this light before we land
[Chorus]
And when I feel like I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile, soak it in awhile
If we can hold on
We can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us
[Verse 3]
Before we let euphoria convince us we are free
Remind us how we used to feel before when life was real
[Chorus]
And when I feel like I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile, soak it in awhile
If we can hold on
We can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us
