another night of sitting in, and i think i’m going crazy,
but i miss the way you’d lay with me, and when you’d call me baby.
and i know it’s not that far away when i’ll see you again,
but goddamnit it, it’s been so long, and it’s harder than it’s ever ever been.
and the last time that we woke up on the futon that we shared,
where you’d wake up in your make up, well i told you then and there
that i loved you more than i had ever loved anyone before.
and i know it’s been a long time, but i mean it even more.
and maybe sometimes i can’t deal with separation all that well,
and i do my best to hide it, but i know that you can tell
when my words they start to tremble, or i’m crying on the phone,
and the nights, can’t bear to go out, and i end up drunk alone.
the biggest lie i’ve ever told you was someday i might get better,
but i promise i’m still trying not to burden you forever.
and i’ll try and make you happy, give you lots of hugs and coffee,
and i’ll kiss you in the airport when you finally come and see me.
