Shadows are falling, and I'm running out of breath Keep me in your heart for a while If I leave you, it doesn't mean I love you any less Keep me in your heart for a while When you get up in the morning and see that crazy sun Keep me in your heart for a while It's a train leaving nightly called When all is said and done Just keep me in your heart for a while Keep me in your heart for a while Keep me in your heart for a while Sometimes, you're doing simple things around the house Maybe you'll think of me and smile You know I'm tied to you just like the buttons on your blouse Keep me in your heart for a while Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams Touch me as I fall in view When the winter comes, keep the fires lit I'll be right next to you Engine driver headed north to Pleasant Stream Keep me in your heart for a while These wheels keep on turning, but they're running out of steam Keep me in your heart for a while Keep me in your heart for a while Keep me in your heart for a while Keep me in your heart for a while Keep me in your heart for a while
