I'm Only Sleeping...
After all,
It's not as if I want to miss it-
Miss that little bit of you
That lingers in front of me.
It's not your fault,
I'm only sleeping.
I don't take notice
Of the things you say
The way you wish I would;
I'm off again
On another daydream
With or without
Permission.
Resisting this
Is so damned hard, I know.
I never expect you to stick around.
It's only ever after that
I see how I've been gone again,
And then its just too late, I know.
I just don't feel the way I should,
I guess there must be something wrong.
But then again,
I'm only sleeping;
As chance would have it
Usually dreaming about you.
I don't feel your smile around-
My head's somewhere up in the clouds,
And nothing, no one, nowhere
Takes me back down.
It's not your fault,
I'm only sleeping...
Then I awake
And you are gone.

Lovely work, Charlie.
I would just warn you - don't sleep through the good stuff. Sometimes we get a second wind, you know?
