Poem
I saw you a hundred times Never dreamt you’d be mine Thought you'd be married by now But you never did somehow and it always made me wonder When you'd come home in the summer Shopping for shoes I looked for you In the bookstore I wanted to talk more Dodging your compliments I knew they meant nothing at all to you any more than you wanted them to But the little girl wanted to believe But she just wouldn’t Heard your parents were there somewhere But I shyed away That’s what I’m good at Now I lay… Sleeping alone Dreaming about you In your bed I jerk awake All alone And wish I was with you to stay You really shouldn’t let me sleep alone, dear And I really shouldn’t let you sleep alone I run down the street As fast as I can All the way down To the next town To the nearest airport Jump the fastest plane Just to get to you Just to get to you I found the window Of your bedroom Of your house On your street In your little city In your country I looked in But I stayed low you're asleep You’ll wake up soon I’m hiding out So you can’t see me I stay down Til you want me Til you want me My God boy Don’t you know? Up in your room in the states It won’t always be this way… It’ll get harder before it gets harder still… Then one day Its like the Beach Boys say We’ll say goodnight And we can stay… In your window See your five o clock shadow And it drives me crazy And maybe I’ll just sneak in your room, your bed, right in But I… don’t Kiss you sweetly On your lips Feel me Touch your skin Be good to you But I…won’t I was sleeping alone Dreaming about you In your bed I jerked awake All alone And wished I was with you to stay
