Heaven Help Me
I couldn't sleep
Last night
Closed my eyes
And there you were
Opened them
And my mind raced
If only I could
Get this out
Be done with
This
It's been so long
Since you've keep me
From sleep
Even if now
It's only
Your memory
I was doing alright
I was okay
Or at least I'd like
To think so
But now I'm back
To sleepless nights
And troubled thoughts
I just want this over
Done
Because it never really
Ended
I think I'm just searching for
A resolution
Peace of mind
That'd be nice
And I just don't know
Can't be certain
That I'll ever get it...
Perhaps, tonight
I'll sleep
Maybe your memory
Won't haunt me
But, maybe it's not
Your memory
That haunts me so
But, the fact that I
Have it, on good authority
That there is
The distinct possibility
That you will waltz
Charmingly
Back into my life
If...
When...
That happens
Heaven help me...
