Rest Now - Melissa Ferrick

You wanted to be invisible

So you got on stage

Away from the crowds

Back doors and bars your favorite place

But singing is lonely

And lonely is dark

But under those bright lights

You came alive

You came alive

Big eyes, small hands yes

You sang so beautiful

It made my heart hit the ground

Bird on a wire

You’re a man on the verge

You deserve

To rest now

Rest now

Rest now

'Cause nobody knows, not even you

The depth of your sadness

Why that chain is dragging you

You said it’s best if we just listen to see ourselves

In the eyes of strangers

We will recognize

Our own hotel, vast horizon

Big eyes, small hands

You sang so beautiful

It made my heart hit the ground

Bird on a wire

A man on the verge

You deserve

To rest now

Rest now

Rest now

In the eyes of strangers we will recognize

Our own hotel, vast horizon
