I don't sleep anymore I wander the apartment Everything a reminder I touch your things Put on your shirt Inhale your scent Until finally I lay down My eyes close Exhausted But my mind races My heart aches In this bed Half empty And as sleep creeps At the edge of my mind A sound The lock, the key My eyes snap Mind reels Heart drums Not you, never you A sleepy trick Played by my own mind Expecting you still To climb in beside me And live in dreams again |
