In Every Way

There is a bear in the bed. 
He's not hunting 
There where you said 
You'll leave something. 

So you can come back and stay 
For a little while 
Longer, maybe next we can 
Hold onto and stop time. 

You can't come back if you don't leave, you say,
That part of you stays with me every day. 
You can't come back if you don't leave, you say,
Yet you touch my life in every way,
You touch my life in every way.

Using magical hands,
Hold moments still. 
Twixt burning delirium 
On abandon's brink. 

Where doubts sting like paper cuts 
And a brighter light may dim,
We'll un-complicate the memory
Recall a future that we glimpsed. 

You can't come back if you don't leave, you say,
That part of you stays with me every day. 
You can't come back if you don't leave, you say,
Yet you touch my life in every way,
You touch my life in every way.

There is a bear in the bed. 
He's not sleeping 
There where you said
It's for keeping

There is a bear in the bed. 
The bear in the bed,
Is not hunting.
