about
As the subtitle suggests, this is a pretty sappy love song. Never written one of these before...
lyrics
Well the sun will be rising soon so maybe we should sleep
But I wish we could lie awake all tangled in the sheets
The whiskey's gone, the lights are out, there's nothing more to say
But I know that you've got to go when night turns into day
So I don't want this night to end - I know it's a cliche but
I could write a sappy love song
Find some words to make you see
How much I'll miss you when you're gone
'Cause the world seems brighter when you're smiling at me
And maybe if I'm lucky I can see you in my dreams
And your beauty can radiate on those subconscious scenes
Or I could fight exhaustion and hold on to you instead
And savour the sensation of your presence in my bed
And if you're in the mood then maybe I could give you head
:p
I could write a sappy love song
Find some words to make you see
How much I'll miss you when you're gone
'Cause the world seems brighter when you're smiling at me
Your legs they are a-trembling so I try to keep you warm
And here inside my arms I try to make you feel at home
Your body pressed against me and the beating of your heart
And the steady sleepy rhythm of your breathing in the dark
I'll let this moment echo in my mind when we're apart
And I'll write you a sappy love song
Find some words to make you see
How much I'll miss you when you're gone
'Cause the world seems brighter when you're smiling at me
Well the sun will be rising soon so maybe we should sleep
But I wish we could lie awake all tangled in the sheets
