Harry ChapinGood tired, ironically enough, can be a day that you lost. But you wonโt even have to tell yourself, because you knew you fought your battles, you chased your dreams, you lived your days. And when you hit the hay at night, you settle easy, you sleep the sleep of the just, and you can say, โTake me away.
