My High

MY HIGH
The only high I needed, 
was another glass of wine,
to hear you -- say Hi,
another piece of you, 
though I know it isn't mine,
but it gets me by.
The only high I needed 
was to look into your eyes,
I cherish the pain,
live for the pain.
My pain.

The best that I could hope for 
was to hear your voice again,
to hear you -- say Hi,
another piece of you, 
I still need it now and then,
to help me get by,
The only high I needed 
was to hear your voice again,
The high of your Hi.
High of your Hi.
My high.
