I find out answers when I don't ask
While I stand here, with a visit from my past
I didn't invite you, I asked you very kindly
To leave when I wanted you, please do not remind me
It was me that said
Please do not go, you don't know, you can't stay
I can't sleep when you're gone, did you know
I only lay awake 'till morning
I consented to walk what's the harm in a stroll?
A couple of blocks couldn't take a toll
I consented to talk what's the harm in catching up?
It's been twelve blocks, come back, I'll never have enough
It was me that says
Please, do not go, you don't know, you can't stay
I don't sleep when you're gone, did you know
I only lay awake
You said what's the harm in trying?
You said what's the use when you know all along?
You always said each day's a new start
You must sleep well, sleeping must heal the heart
Please, do not go, you don't know, you can't stay
I don't sleep when you're gone, when you're gone
I lay awake
Please do not go, you don't know, you can't stay
I don't sleep when you're gone, did you know
I only lay awake 'till morning
