For You.

Drip drip drop, down on my face, down to the floor
take one, of a two week time
I find myself staying here longer each day
and I swear that someday, I will see straight
and I'll find you, falling over again
Click, click click over your big brown eyes
staring back into mine
I can't get over this sullen sweet night
and I just want you to feel alright
Some pages pass, and back to you I come
all signs point back north
but the words mean more to me than you
they were written for you
Tap, tap tip my fingers on the keys, all too late
the blankets on the bed, tattered and smell weird
they smell of cold sweat and beer
I ache for the wintertime, those books that we've read
I'll read again
After enough time passes, you'll remember my name
and your heart will break all over again
So long, and so far.
thump, de dump thump, my heart won't stop pounding
I swear its only because of you
the sounds of the night keep on crying
and it's only because of you.
