Lethargically In Love

Now my eyes are heavy and my neck is weak,
And I’ve gone too many days without any sleep.
If I could just hear your voice, if I could just hear you breathe…
I’d finally get the rest I need.

Now I haven’t been hungry in quite a while,
And doing laundry has become my Friday night style.
If I could just see your face, if I could just touch your hair…
I’d finally start to care.
