can't get him off my mind (from forever, in time).

i'm dreaming awake at night
smoking from my window
gazing into the street lights
so far away, feeling so near
floating in ecstasy, wishing you were here
it's crazy that i feel so crazily
faithfully winning, mindlessly spinning
falling, spiralling down, but landing at the top
i never want this feeling to stop

happy and sad; too good to be true
it gets beautifully hard at night
when all i think about is you
wandering blind
never want to leave this behind
and the funny thing is
i just can't get him off my mind

i can't sleep
when i'm feeling so deep
wishing you was here
waiting for the time
when i can pull you closer
your head on my shoulder
and when you do
the nights won't be so colder

i dream of midnight talks
of summer day walks
these crazy thoughts
the happy kind
the funny thing is
i just can't get him off my mind

i'm dreaming awake at night
smoking from my window
gazing into the street lights
it's childish but true
how at this time
i just can't get him off my mind
