I wake up and watch the shadows
On the wall make hearts and daggers
As I recall last, night I saw your face
You never wore too much make up
You're too beautiful to cover
Dreams of you have always kept me sane
I know I shouldn't wait up for you much longer
And I know you got a man that's a wee bit taller
But when I think of love
I think of you
And I know it's time for me to start moving forward
But my cigarettes are stale and my beer feels warmer
When the blood running through my veins
Is cold and blue
Feelings change just like the seasons
But I don't have a single reason
To comb my hair or dress up nice today
If everyone goes out on weekends
And sleeps with every attractive person
Then why can't you call me up and say
I thought of you the other day when I went walking
And I know you're smoking more by the way you're talking
But when i think of love
I think of you
But things will never go the way that I imagine
And I know your sister says that I'm all talk no action
But I left all my friends
Because of you
You are drawn to me like a plastic magnet
And I will sing to you like a tone deaf prophet
Similes in stupid songs
Are hard to use
But I'll keep writing notes; tell you how I'm feeling
And I won't talk to girls, man I got no reason
Cause I can't fall in love
Because of you
