Sleep There Till Dawn Big Country

I got your message at work
You sounded so hurt
Were there tears in your voice?
I couldn’t quite tell for the noise

You said he’d been ’round
And you had to explain
While you sat drinking tea on the porch in the pouring rain

And you look tired tonight
Like you might have been cryin’
So put your head on my shoulder, baby
Sleep there till dawn

He gave you the blame
For him messin’ up
While you silently swept up the pieces
Of love’s broken cup

And you look tired tonight
Like you might’ve been cryin’
And the pain in your eyes
Isn’t finished with dyin’
But I won’t even ask
For it soon will be gone
So put your head on my shoulder, baby
Sleep there till dawn
