I wake up every night
Wishing he was by my side
My mouth is dry
I did not mean to cry
What I drink is sweet
But I want to quench my thirst
I slowly turn on the light
Hoping I can hide
Wishing I could fly
But I would surely die
It has got me beat
Surely I'm just cursed
You are very bright
It's really got me tied
And I can't deny
Or even try to defy
I'm stuck in the heat
But cold am I, at worst
It's not right
Now you know I've lied
It seems I must clarify
I'm trying to beautify
Something I don't want him to meet
Though I'm ready to burst
I'm just trying to write
But the notification has got me glassy eyed
And I'm trying to justify
And maybe glorify
My pain on a downbeat
I'm really not the first
And I won't be the last fight
I know you only try to divide
You try to modify
But it you really horrify
It's something I don't want to treat
It shouldn't be nursed
I take flight
For this has died
Still I'm asking why,
Yet I don't know you anymore, and I'm shy
I don't mean to mistreat
But it can't be forced
I wake up every night
Wishing he was by my side
My mouth is dry
I did not mean to cry
What I drink is sweet
But I want to quench my thirst
