Every night when I lay down
I say your name inside my head
My hand reaches out for you
Wishing you were beside me in my bed
Sometimes it helps to pretend you're there
Imagining your arms around me
But then I remember we are worlds apart
And that we can never ever be
Yet, that doesn't stop my mind from wandering
Or creating make believe plots
Where we meet and have fun
And I finally get my shot
Crazy thoughts and stories
Fill my mind all night long
Keeping me from sleeping
Your hold on me is just much too strong
All I can hear is your voice
All I can see is your smile
I lie there awake for hours
Wishing I could just forget you for a while
It's always when I need to sleep
That you relentlessly invade my mind
And yet I can do nothing about it
As you are determined to keep me blind
From everyone else out in the world
Because how could they ever compare
To you, the person I always believe is the one
Even though you will never be there
Right beside me
Telling me it will be fine
I need to get you out of me head
Before I get lost in your rhymes
I know it's impossible
That you will ever look my way
Yet I could never turn my back on you
From you, never could I stray
You are the reason
I spend so many nights awake
The sole cause of my insomnia
As I wait for my heart to break
Maybe one day I'll forget you
And I'll finally be able to sleep at night
I won't have a reason for my mind to wander
And I'll finally be able to say without you I'll be alright
