Simon Joyner I'm Taking You With Me Lyrics

I'm taking you with me
I hope that's okay
You cannot leave, though
Your body will stay
Still, I'm taking you with me
In every other way, it seems

I buried all the pain
I wanted to share
There were dreams I couldn't sleep through
And I saw you were scared
So, I'm taking you with me
I'm finally prepared to tell you everything

There's been a lullaby
Trapped in your head
Since the hummingbird dared to fly
Through the spider's web Couldn't the wind have chosen
Any other day?

I know, I'm taking you with me
But I didn't plan it this way
You appear to be missing
While I only remain
In the smiles under glass or in somebody's chest
All filed away

You were singing when I died
So you'd like to cut out your tongue
Is that any way
To honor our love?
I don't need you anymore
Papa, don't cry
Turn back now and say goodbye
