I wish I could believe
It’s past midnight and I don’t want to sleep
Your piano keeps me awake
I think about what I take, what I can keep
You say you want to stay,
I say I don’t believe you
Been there before, been used
Trusted stories and lies
Let myself be abused
Why should I dare to try
Who are you to make feel
Wake up with no expectations
Empty sheets say goodbye
Laying here in stagnation
Lying here wondering why
Your perfume sweet torture
Been there before, been used
Trusted stories and lies
Let myself be abused
Why should I dare to try
Who are you to make feel
You say you want to stay
Yet every time you leave
Your shadow is as clear as day
I wish I could believe
I knew you before
I would love to see this put to music, I hope you are able to hook up with someone. Very well written and does evoke memories for many of us.
