DEAR HEART

Please take me home, dear heart
I do not want us to be far apart
I have got no place else to go tonight  
You are all I have left

I do not want the world 
To see me for someone that is a destitute
But the night is timid
The stars nowhere to be found

There is no one coming, I get it
Every place I know, I have searched
All I see is a confusing world 
Do you think I am out of my mind?

I need you, please hold my hand
And take me with you tonight
I do not want to be lonely and sad
Is it alright if I lie by your side?
