I lay next to myself breathing slow Car crash in rewind There’s nothing you could have done, said a soft voice Calm down, you will survive Leave me out of my mind sedated Bitter and blurry eyed Please don’t look in my face when I'm wasted You know you can’t relate And the world got a little more dim tonight The world got a little more dim tonight Though you had to go, I won’t forget your light The world got a little more dim tonight Days come, just like our friends, with a soft glow A warm touch that slowly fades You’re just out of my reach in the shadows Still young, but weathered gray And the world got a little more dim tonight The world got a little more dim tonight Though you had to go, I won’t forget to fight The world got a little more dim tonight I will protect your light Lay down with me tonight, breathing slow Back in the driveway Rest now, kiss me goodbye in the morning I'm with you always And the world got a little more dim tonight The world got a little more dim tonight Though you had to go, I won’t forget to fight The world got a little more dim tonight
