I find out answers
When I don't ask
While I stand here
With a visit form 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 lie awake
Til mornin'
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 and back
I'll never have enough
It's me that says
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 lie awake
You said what's the harm in trying
I say, 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 can't sleep
When you're gone
When you're gone
I lie awake
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 lie awake
Til mornin'
