A Terrible Crush

Two o clock in the morning
And I can't sleep
Guess I’m too busy wishing
You were here next to me

It’s three o clock now
And I’m still awake
I've spent the past hour
Imagining your face

Another hour ticks by
And I’m falling asleep
Wistfully imagining
Your arms around me

Six o clock in the morning
I wake in a sweat
I dreamed of you darling
And when we first met

But everything was different
It wasn't the same
You had the same voice
When you called my name

But I didn't know you
You weren't my love
Your eyes had changed colour
From sapphire to mud

In my dream you weren't mine
A bitter, dreadful truth
For you see, my darling
I've got such a crush on you
