Sleepless Nights

I once again wake up in the early am I wonder where all this began You are the reason why I toss and turn It's being near you for your love is what I yearn But here I am alone in the twilight You are the reason for my sleepless nights If I had the courage to tell you Maybe I would sleep past two But til then I will hide how I feel Too afraid of rejection if I reveal How my heart jumps when we speak and I can look your eyes Once again at night alone and alone I cry The urge to tell is so strong, even though my tunnel has no light I thank you for the sleepless nights Soon you find out from a friend of a friend So now I can no longer pretend We talk about how we feel, we agree it must be fate Now everyday just to see you, I can't wait We are now engaged and you are a bride to be I thank you for all in the world you have given me I still struggle, but now it's with happiness and delight Thank you my love for the sleepless nights
