Up All Night 

That traffic light stayed red all night
As we pulled into the convenient store.
I said to you then that I am no man,
But that kick in your stomach made me think again.

So settle down, darlin'
Crying all night, won't make things right.
You were so frightened and scared, for what came next.
I could tell by the way that your knees shake,
All night, all night, all night.
Your tired face, made me love this place,
You're fragile, you're weak, and you're weary.

So just close your eyes.

I slept all night, by your side,
But when you woke with that look in your eyes,
I could have died, I could have died, I should have died.
There was strength in your crooked spine,
But it was black, it was blue, it was broken, and bruised.
You wouldn't dare expose your flesh and your bones,
For fear that I could break your heart.

And I just want to heal you,
Like I'm some God.
Now who in the hell, was I kidding.

And I just want to love you.
I just want to heal you.
That look in your eyes.
Oh, that's when I knew.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.
