She never feels good 'cause she can't sleep
And when people can't sleep it makes it hard for you to eat
Early in the morning with no time to take a shower
She leaves a bed that would be empty except me
Wrapped up in a feeling that I never want to lose
After I got caught up she brought up the big news
But she don't want to see my face when I'm sad
Already got enough on her plate from her dad
To worry about me means forget about yourself
And that has brought about a sudden decline in her health
I'm begging for her kisses while I offer up my help
But what she needs is way out of my reach and I can tell
I'm way too deep in my obsession with a face
That my mind can't erase
Memories I can't escape
I hold her too tightly and I don't want to replace
The feeling that electrifies flesh time and space
But I think you should...
Get some rest so tomorrow will be easy
I'll hold you so close cause in the morning when you leave me
I feel alone like a child on the blacktop
Counting every step from my door to the bus stop
But it's never like that when I feel you next to me
But my love is like a bad bruise
So much proof from the trails that my fingers leave
I should have known that it was all because of me
She doesn't dream much 'cause she needs help
Before she goes to bed she takes a jar off of the shelf
Two lights and then one true blue pill
To take away the buzzing she always seems to feel
Within the worries that come with a little sister
Hides from the pride when 'cause she cried when she missed her
And you may be the only one who understands
So you should take a little break to hold her hand
But it only gets worse watching the hurt
When you want to give her what she deserves
Don't worry about me I'm fast asleep
Lying under Autumn leaves that are falling from Glen Tree
When the hours come when I will be awake
We'll jump into the feelings that have drowned us like a lake
We struggle to the surface but I fear that I'm too late
Another hand reached yours pulling you up into your fate
But I think you should...
Get some rest so tomorrow will be easy
I'll hold you so close cause in the morning when you leave me
I feel alone like a child on the blacktop
Counting every step from my door to the bus stop
But it's never like that when I feel you next to me
But my love is like a bad bruise
So much proof from the trails that my fingers leave
I should have known that it was all because of me
It's summertime and the living is easy
I tell you how I feel about you but you don't believe me
Your daddy's rich and your mama's good lookin'
You and number two already got some new cookin'
(repeat)
