Lyrics Glenn Hughes

Glenn Hughes

Cover Me

Somewhere between the lines unbroken

There lies the sacred part of me

Behind the door that once was opened

Is where I fell from grace you see

Inside I feel the pressure

My faith I cannot measure

Seems like the wound has deepened

I wake but I'm not breathing and I say

Cover me while I'm sleeping, won't you cover me?

Cover me if I'm bleeding, won't you cover me?

Cover me, be my shadow, won't you cover me?

Cover me, I will follow, won't you?

So won't you take this captured spirit?

Now won't you hear my final plea?

You got to cut the wire, release your sympathy

Unspoken words that heal

This dream just can't be real and I say

Cover me while I'm sleeping, won't you cover me?

Cover me if I'm bleeding, won't you cover me?

Cover me, be my shadow, won't you cover me?

Cover me, I will follow

Somewhere between the lines unbroken

There lies the sacred part of me

Inside I feel the pressure

My faith I cannot measure

Seems like the wound has deepened

I wake but I'm not breathing and I say

Cover me while I'm sleeping, won't you cover me?

Cover me if I'm bleeding, won't you cover me?

Cover me, be my shadow, won't you cover me?

Cover me, I will follow
