Drifting nights
I'm laying here all on my own wishing that you were here, trying to drift off to sleep so a I could try to dream you near
Dreaming you were in my bed, our bodies bound as one, moulded in a sweet embrace but I must sleep to get this done
Trying to ignore the pain which makes it so hard to calm my brain, desperate to find a deep sleep that will bring you to me again
I close my eyes ever so tightly but still I toss and turn, I pray silently in my head to bring me to the dream of which I yearn
My mind won't stop racing through the pain I'm counting sheep, trying to find a relaxing path, to find some elusive sleep
I have brief moments of quietness, before the pain sends another wave, I try my best to drift to you, your presence is all I crave
I just get to the edge of a dream, when the pain comes flooding back so no matter how I try, I'm lying here in pain and all alone as another night drifts by
