I cant help but look at you
You're part of my mind
Thats where you reside
As I lie awake at night
Are you thinking of me
Lying awake or fast asleep?
Is that why I cant sleep?
I hope you're awake
Cos I'm thinking of you
Transfixed
Consumed
Enthused
And I hope sleep escapes you
Cos you are a thought
That I cannot lose
A lover that I chose
I hope you have assumed
A role in my life
Cos I want to know you
For as long as I can
As long as the sleepless nights lasts
I don't want you to be a part of the past
I'll love you
Like an alcoholic
Loves a glass
Of what goes straight past their lips
Into the intestines
I could love you
Be part of your life
For as long as I can
For you I could be
A saint that wants to be damned
I've got one demand
That you be a demon
That loves holding my hand
