I hold your back against my chest
rest my lips gently on your neck
watch you stir so peacefully
i wonder if you're dreaming of me
hello, hello, can i get you something?
goodbye, goodbye, cause he gave you nothing
but you know i would
yeah you know i would
how am i supposed to keep
all to myself when i can see
everything that i could ever need
is standing right in front of me
keep a piece of you so close to me
so when i sing this song you feel my grief
every night on this fucking stage
so far from you, but so close to fame
hello, hello, can i get you something?
goodbye, goodbye, cause he gave you nothing
but you know i would
yeah you know i would
how am i supposed to keep
all to myself when i can see
everything that i could ever need
is standing right in front of me
when you're gone the days seem so long
time keeps ticking but i can't move on
but when you're here it all becomes so clear
i'm only happy when you're near
(interlude)
how am i supposed to keep
all to myself when i can see
everything that i could ever need
is standing right in front of me
