But we do disagree.
And the feelings we emit,
Are the ones that won't set us free.
You just roll over, and hope it will go away.
And in your head it just may.
But it lingers on in my mind,
And sleep is hard to find.
You can turn away,
And try to make these feelings go away.
Just pretend that they aren't there.
Pretend that you don't make me cry at night.
Pretend that everything's going to be alright.
But the sun goes down, and nothing is said.
Clouded thoughts begin to fill my head.
I little poke, a nudge here or there.
That's not a way to show you care.
Or a way to end the silence we share.
You expect me to roll over and take you into my arms,
And tell you I love you and I'm sorry for whatever's wrong.
Why must I give in all the time?
Love is what I need to feel from you.
I know you could never be untrue.
But why can't you tell me things like that?
So at night, when I'm all alone,
My mind wanders and thinks.
What is to come of all those times
The sun went down,
And our togetherness was no where to be found?
