I CAN'T GET YOU OFF MY MIND

My love for you I can not fight

I hold my pillow hoping it would

Be you when I get out of bed

I have tried with all my might to get

You off my mind

I close my eyes and all I see you

Oh this is making me so blue

because I know I cannot hold you

you are so far away I cry each and

every day just wishing I was with you

what must my poor heart do?

block my ears and in my head all I hear

is that you are calling out my name even in my dreams

I sat at the end of my bed and I start to pray

to please send you my way

then when I got trough crying for you

I looked out my window wishing you were doing

the same calling out each others name

when I got myself back in bed

I have gone to sleep having many dreams

seeing you standing right next to me.
