Awhile

Staring into a sinking sun
Ticks the names off one by one
Who would thought i'd even know you

Feels like i've been asleep for days
Please don't tell me it's a phase
I know i'll always be tired

You seem surprised
When i ask why
You sit and smile
It's been a while

In a second you'll be gone
Could you leave the heater on
I'm clearly freezing

A soothing voice tells me goodbye
This time i don't need to cry
I know i'll see you in the morning

You seem surprised
When i ask why
You sit and smile
It's been a while
