As I lay next to you
The words came into my head
I longed to tell you
I longed to share
Tell you I always want you there
‘Cause I think I know
Why you have this hold over me
Now
I think I know.

And I open my mouth to speak
But the words escape my breath
So I remain silent
And I’ll save my secret
For another day

You are the inspiration
That fills my page with words
You are the motivation
That drives me through this darkness
You are the shadow
That has attached itself to my body
When we are apart
You are here
In my thoughts
In my words

As I lay next to you
The words came into my head
I longed to tell you
I longed to share
Tell you I always want you there
‘Cause I think I know
Why you have this hold over me
Now
I think I know…
